Essential info!! Last time I was where you are (at 35,000ft.) in a Boeing 707, we didn't have Satnav, just a sextant and an astro compass. Grid navigation, great fun. Couldn't use Polaris at night as it's too high in the sky which sharpened up our star recognition somewhat. Still I think I was more comfortable than you are now. Respeck! Less than 29 n.m. to go. Wow. Don't step in the puddles. Baba Hi Paul & Alice,
