Angier,
The Sun at the Beverly
Municipal Airport in Massachusetts, on December 21st noon Eastern Time,
will have a magnetic azimuth of 200 deg and an elevation of only 26 degrees. Even
without the calculations I’ll take a bold guess that it will be “freezing-ass-cold!”
Hope this helps… J

I'm
about to begin hangar construction at Beverly Municipal Airport - KBVY. :-) Placement
of the door will be to the south but I'd like to be a bit more specific than
that. So for those of you who may be skilled in the black art of trig and celestial
navigation, here is the brain teaser. What is the magnetic bearing of the sun
at noon on December 21st at location:
42-35'02.55"N
/ 70-54'35.43"
Thanks
in advance!
