Going Solo
The one that must be obeyed has issued me with strict instructions to tidy up my office, and toss out old tax files, work memos, magazines etc.
While sorting it all I discovered the attached WAC chart (World Aviation Chart) but this one had my very first pilot solo navigation exercise inscribed on it!!
(Jurassic circa 1978).
GPS had not been invented then. Memories of navigating by map, compass, time and 1 in 60 rules came flooding back.....sigh...
In this digital age, I am curious to know whether anyone still uses aviation charts and the like. If so, in what context?
