Captain Speaking!  How are you?  I have always wanted to meet you!  I spoke to your co-pilot 'First-Officer Here' just the other day!  

Thanks for the link.  I love this older interesting stuff.

Hey bobcat. Enjoy the add-on!

Are you referring to "TailSpin Tom" as my co-pilot?

Nice one Ernie.

WOW! I'm definitely going to learn this in honor of my great grandpa who flew/navigated Lancasters over the dark skies of Germany during the war. Fantastic! I have a period celestial nav pocket book of his somewhere too...

Hi,

Thanks for the interesting link. I haven't done celestial navigation from an aircraft in 60 years. It will be a challenge to see if I can still do it with this app. GPS has sure made navigation a lot easier and accurate.

@jcjimmy - I'm honored to have you trying this!

Thank you for this celestial present from the sky, I tried to track my flight using your device and importing the .CSV file in Littlenavmap, no more GPS tracking, it works. It is beautiful using your CNS with the PMDG DC-6.
