That would certainly explain some of the recent discrepancies I've found! I'm afraid I've found some more, I'll post them later. I guess these discrepancies would affect the great circle distance calculations too?

Beautiful! Smack in the middle of the airfield!

Thanks!

You never did say, are these the kind of corrections you want to know about?

The route map generated shows all lines originating at Summer Hill. Summer Hill is about 60km North West of Newcastle Airport/RAAF Williamtown. I think that the problem is that the lat/long we've agreed on are actually expressed as a decimal, they're in a degrees.minutes notation. The actual coords are:-

 32°48'15.14"S (30.80°S)
151°50'23.82"E (151.83°E)

If this is too trivial to worry about let me know.

Thanks

Hello,

noticed on the route maps that Newcastle Airport/RAAF Williamtown (NTL/YWLM)had undergone a major geographical shift. Lat/Long for the airport is 32.48S 151.50E. I'm guessing you pass this to Google maps etc, my apologies for wasting time if you don't.

Regards

Andrew
