Anyway, the pdf pisces posted is the direciton im probbly gonna head with this.
input your 1st course and speed... grab three bearings.
Input your second course and speed... grab another three bearings.
It then tells you the targets true course and speed.. .and the distance along the last bearing he was.
So all you'll need to do is draw out the last bearing from you to the distance it gives you... then move the other end of it in the direction the target is going and you're good to go. |
And while I wrote this I've burned my dinner! YIKES!!!
Hey don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that you are wrong and I am right! I'm just trying to get a point across, which turned out to be more difficult than I have expected!
To make a long story short: you say this doesn't work as this will introduce a new error (position), while I say it's all a matter of conversion! Can we at least agree on that?
Be that as it may, Pisces has made this debate obsolete anyway.
Man, I had a good laugh!
