1stMate. The Pilot - navigation program. This is a text/statistics spreadsheet type game. Quite confusing just looking at it but I'm sure it reasonably easy when you know whats what; 1stMate aka First Mate.

Game Review
This is not your standard game definition. This is a texts/statistics (spreadsheet) game, 1stMate is a pilot program. Your plan your destination where you want to go. You enter data to where-ever you want to go. Make sure you choose the correct time, course, and variation modes. You entering data in a cell, since this is the key to telling the First Mate what you do know.
The First Mate will provide the answers if at all possible.
You can perform "what-if" track analysis by deleting one cell (highlight the cell and press the key) and then double-clicking a cell for which you wish an answer.
If you have sea time behind you, you should find the program quite intuitive, If not....
Playing Pilot
A keyboard and a mouse.
System Requirements
The version is released for DOS and Hewlett-Packard (HP-41, HP-28, and HP-48SX) handheld calculators. The program was written and compiled under Microsoft Visual Basic for Windows. It was sized for a 1024x768 display, so will be larger than the Program Manager Desktop on a VGA display. Simply resize the forms using standard Windows procedures.
