Lots of people flew across the Atlantic with sometimes
just a compass, and they easily recognized the coast of England /
France / whatever with their bare old eyes ;-)

Just a compass? No charts or other aids at all?

It's true that if you start at certain latitudes and fly due east, you'll
eventually hit some part of Europe. That's essentially just throwing darts,
however.

Not to real pilots, sim pilots maybe, but not real pilots.
