Remember that little book of programs that came with calculators like
the 41C that had all the neat little navigation programs. Distance
between points, heading between points, and other stuff - where you
entered the longitudes and latitudes. Anyone know where they can be
found - my booklets have gone the usual way that forgotten booklets
do. Can anyone tell?

Wikipedia can: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great-circle_distance

Although it might be more convenient to download a program, I
personally, think it is fun to enter the formulas myself. I might
learn something!
