How so? I was alluding to the fact that some things in aviation have

I gave you some tantalizing clues about navigation. Pursue them or
ignore them. Up to you.



At the moment I don't have time to investigate them, but I'll keep
them under consideration.

But you do have time to make aleph null cross posts to USENET. How
convenient.
