RE: Mercator Sailing: Course and Distance
I incorporated most of the changes you suggested. Attached is the revised program.

Example Problem. Our position is L 32°14.703′ N, λ 66°28.902′ W, and we wish to determine the course and distance to a point near Chesapeake Light, in L 36°58.703′ N, λ 75°42.201′ W, by Mercator sailing.
