and navigator students. This handbook explains how to measure, chart the earth, and use flight instruments to solve basic
navigation problems. It also contains data pertaining to flight publications, preflight planning, in-flight procedures, and low
altitude navigation. A listing of references and supporting information used in this publication is at Appendix A; mathematical
formulas to use as an aid in preflight and in-flight computations are at Appendix B; chart and navigation symbols are at
Appendix C.; and a Celestial Computation Sheet is at Appendix D.
