Re: [MBZ] GPS question

B-52 never had Loran (depends on outside source); had very good RADAR. They're using GPS now, too. Yeah, I know - outside source. Wilton - Original Message - From: "Wonko the Sane" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Mercedes Discussion List" Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2008 8:45 PM Subject: Re:

Re: [MBZ] GPS question

We had a "map" thing in the HH-3F (late 1970s) -- you put a paper map on the display and Loran C would punch a hole (using a pin) every so often to mark your route and position. Hard to believe that Loran C was the baddest kid on the block in those days -- the plane I flew in (nav position) still

Re: [MBZ] OT the Hottest VP

Cause otherwise people won't have kids and there won't be anyone to wipe your bottom when you are in a nursing home. Of course plan B is to import workers but then you probably don't like that idea either. More seriously though, the notion of subsidizing having kids is a example of a modern soci

[MBZ] GPS question

I have never owned a GPS. Want to fix that. I have two requirements. 1. Anal-retentive as I am, I would like to get a true mph reading so I know how far off my speedometers are. This is hopefully cheap. 2. I want turn-by-turn directions -- or at least a good map -- to drive around in new surroun
