Plotting the bearing and inches on the map does not require us to give any consideration to the scale of the map in any way whatsoever, whether the pr…
The natural approach is to plot the bearing and inches on the P66, whether or not the map is correctly oriented. This is, perhaps, your biggest sticki…
The important question that I am wanting to ask here is not about what The Zodiac did, but about what we can fairly be expected to do, now we have the…
Question: given that we are ultimately required, according to your proposed method, to convert a distance, deduced into miles, to a length in inches o…
Question: what is the rationale that would lead us to use the scale of the Phillips 66 to convert a length in inches to a distance in miles when the l…
Question: does the map used even have to be to any accurate scale or properly oriented to carry out this task?
Question: on having been given a paper map marked with north and a polar origin, along with a set of coordinates (bearing, range) as an angle and a di…
A question: Can you account for how it is that, without explicit instruction, we are to be expected to use the (erroneous) printed scale on the Philli…
I was just wanting to ask, @Northkey, would it cause problems for you if we were to move towards splitting long posts up into smaller chunks, say, poi…
If we are not concerning ourselves with distances as they would actually be measured, in inches, on the Phillips 66 map, then we can have no reason to…
@Northkey. You have just been required to ‘use’, how many words?, in defence of your counter to what is obviously the correct and logical approach, it…
… One method requires just a single map—the one The Zodiac measured his bearing and length on is the very same map sent to LE upon which they are to p…
6 inches on the Phillips 66 at a bearing of 197° points to a place, on the map. With that, we are done. We are not navigating. No one is going to the …
He gave us a cipher. That’s the puzzle. There’s no subsequent “geographical puzzle” unless you choose to make one for yourself. What was the answer …
