RE: (45) Air Navigation with a Pocket Electronic Calculator
I guessed allowable > 1000 was meant to say allowable < 1000, since its the larger distances where the straight-line approximation of a sphere is more noticeable. But the text does indeed refer to distances over 1000 miles in US and Canada...
Which leaves me wondering whether other countries were more accurate, or simply using km instead of miles.
