He might have benefitted from some Chinese technology - the mariner's compass!

[R58484956]

Even a hand held GPS might have helped.

[paull.happyhiker]

What do you think his chances are.....

[Klaatu83]

Just wait till he tries to sail the Atlantic!

[Billieboy]

Even a hand held GPS might have helped.

Didn't need a compass, or GPS, he had a Road Map!(Applause)

[paullad1984]

All he had was a road map? tut, everyone knows you always bare left at an island, and never park on a double yellow Sea anemone.

[Thats another Story]

i wonder did he only have one arm(Jester)

When I used to fly in the 70/80's I was at Manchester airport one day and an Islander aircraft landed with an army parachute display team on board. The pilot had a road map and asked me to point out where Burnely or some such Lancs was. obviously good enough for them !!
