Yes, found those two and they will be helpful. From previous posts at the museum there appears to be no indirect addressing.

What I like is the limited program steps. Makes you really think about efficient code. It would appear, for my 'suite of aviation related programs' that require 5 storage registers that the other 7 registers can be used for constants. That will make my following programs about the max that I can do:

Waypoint load
Great circle
Intermediate latitude
Altitude correction due to low temperatures
X-wind only
Fuel in tank check

These all fit my 34C with 165 lines of programming including the constants like .00198, 273, 360, 15 using up lines of code. By storing these, some of which are used more then once I should be able to squeeze it down to 128. Might have to drop the waypoint load and manually convert the DMS to decimal and store them.

Will be fun to take to work along with the 34c
