  • RE: Latitude, Longitude and the nautical Mile

    Tony, I believe you are correct. I have already highlighted that they have answered the question if it referred to Sea Miles not Nautical Miles.

    So we agree 🙂

    How on earth did we get this far thinking otherwise?

    I take your point now that it is a complete farce that some of the people mentioned are...
