Practical Navigation over the North Atlantic

This paper, which gives a useful description of the procedures used by one transatlantic operator, was presented in Montreal at a meeting of the Canadian Institute of Navigation held on 7 December 1955. Many of the methods discussed are referred to in the preceding three papers. 1. Any discussion of...
