I have found a chap who is an RYA qualified instructor and who is willing to put together a course on the weekend of 17/18th November at a location to be decided but probably either South or East coast UK. 2 day course to include reference book good for 5 years, calculator, protractor, pro-forma and paper, all for GBP50. The aim (light on theory, heavy on practical) is, by the end oif the 2 day course, to be able to take sights, do the calculations, and plot your position. 2 places taken already, and space will be very limited. PM me if interested.

Alan,

I sent you a PM letting you know I have to pick SWMBO from Heathrow on the afternoon of Nov 18th.

Any chance of wriggling around on the dates before we get too many takers??

Cheers
Paul

Gents,

Plase call me on 07771 596755 for details of the course. I have no idea why seemingly no-one has received my emails. The course has been organised and is going ahead.

Look forward to your calls,

Alan Charlton

I for one thought it went very well, and found it very very useful. Jonathan has since found this link which seems to work and, unnervingly, comes up with the same results as those we calculated /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Great to meet up like that and looking forward to meeting you all again at the January dinner ??
