Often, when running simultaneous coord systems, you have lat Lon, and your spc coords, which with a defined projection, and parameters, are reciprocal...

@spledeus I've hand drawn contour maps, but I don't know about the rubber band trick. Care to share? N

@am95405 Obstruction diagrams. Yes... They are ok, but the concept alone is adequate. There's enough birds up there, to make them semi obsolete. Suffi...
