CHORTLE. Have you any experience with a real INS. A real INS can't find squat without being told where it is starting from. This has to be boostrapped from other navigational devices. It's long term stability isn't any better than a compass. It needs additional input. Not to find true north. It can find true north all on its own. Your GPS and INS are useless without a chart or their internal electronic equivelent. I have a GPS with no chart and it's extremely useful. -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
