AIR NAVIGATION - VOL.2 (LAT 0'TO 40') (DEC 0'TO 29')
The Sight Reduction Tables for Air Navigation consist of three volumes of comprehensive tables of altitude and azimuth designed for the rapid reduction of astronomical sights in the air. This volume (Volume 2), for latitudes 0'-40', and Volume 3 for latitudes 39'-89', provide for sights of the Sun, Moon, and planets; these tables are permanent. Volume 1 contains tables for selected stars for all latitudes, calculated for a specific epoch; it is intended for use for about 5 years, when it will be replaced by a new edition based on a later epoch.
The National Imagery and Mapping Agency is responsible for the compilation of these tables. The Nautical Almanac Office of the U.S. Naval Observatory and H.M. Nautical Almanac Office have cooperated in their design and preparation.
The tables are published in the United Kingdom as AP 3270, Sight Reduction Tables for Air Navigation
The content and format of these three volumes may not be changed without the approval of Working Party 70 of the Air Standardization Coordinating committee.
In this 1992 reprint, the basic information and tabular data remain unchanged. Previous printings of this volume need not be replaced by the reprint.
