Well, there you have it....when I was taught to grid charts, we would draw
the lines with a straight-edge and a "sharpie" but only label the grids on
the extreme left hand side of the chart....you then cut down on the amount
of writing on the chart which gives it a cleaner look. But....that was then.

Have you noticed the de-brief on the back of the CAPF-104? You list the
"grids searched" using the new method. It's good to know how things used to
be, but CAP once used little yellow planes....don't see many of those at the
missions that I fly these days.

Semper vi.,

Stephen
