Default Bearing change tables for speed

Hi All,

I’ve made tables for the method I use in my Comprehensive tutorial in my sig (computing target speed based on his bearing change over one minute). I’ve put a link to it in my sig. I used a self made whiz wheel in my tutorial but wanted to make the tables for ease of use So people could print them off and keep them at their desk. Instructions are in the document.

Tutorial is written using SH3 but of course the methods work for Wolfpack as well.

Edit: Please also find a link below to an excel file I created that does the grunt work for you, just plug and chug! This is set to read-only to keep the integrity of the file, so please download for yourself (File - Download As - Excel)!

Wow, this is helpful. Tables are a great asset, I'm going to add these to my command book.

I have made a change to this file, adding the historical fixed wire speed method table from the 1938 Kriegsmarine Torpedo shooting regulations, as well as adding a little background about historical methods of finding speed. Link has been updated in my signature.

Could someone please confirm they can open it?
