Saint's at sea

LOPs from celestial heights?
Yes you are correct Nav,
The St Hiliare method Is the establishing of a line of position from
the observation of the altitude of a celestial body by the use of an
altitude difference and azimuth.
St Hilaire came up with this method crossing the desert with
Nepolian.

Good for a half dozen asa points. But only 5 for Katy since she's a
catholic and should know about the saints.
Describe The St. Hiaire method of Navigation.

My mistake (ie:katytype), and help for you googlers. It's Saint
Hilaire not Hiaire.
Still good for 6 asa points. But still only 5 for katy, and if she
misses it I will call my favorate nun and get he to smak Katy on the
knuckles with a set of parellel rulers :O)
