Great job, Alpheratz! I was going to suggest that we collaborate on a spreadsheet or something, but I see you have that taken care of!

Thanks! I thought that not everyone would be comfortable using kriegsmarine tables. Let there be a spreadsheet for quick navigation, it can be used both for training and on an ongoing basis.

F-Tafel all the way! In practice though I tend to use either Pub 249 or a scientific calculator. F-Tafel though is very accurate and relatively quick too once you get the hang of it.

I also prefer the F-Tafel. I'm planning to do another more detailed video on using the F-Tafel. My first video about F-Tafel is not suitable for using "SH5NewSextant".
