This is straying a little from the topic, however when flying my Sagitta 900
yesterday, I managed to fly it to a "how really high altitude". It got
higher after I engaged the spoilers and, to make a long story short, I lost
it. I eyeballed where it went in, but is really hard to get to from where I
stood in the land of trees and ridges(western Pa). I managed to borrow a
friend's Garmin GPSII and have a question. Can I stand where I was when it
went in and shoot a line to it and then pick up that line after getting
across the ridge where it went in?
