I don't see the feature to do a range and bearing from Home. {Google

In GE, click Tools and select Ruler. Leave the Ruler dialogue box in Line
mode. Put your pointer (which has changed to a square with cross hairs) on
your starting location and click. Move your pointer to the destination and
click again. The dialogue box will show the distance and heading.

Works perfectly. Aiming 34.4 degrees for London, 34.35 for Birmingham.g
Thanks.

Hmmmm. I got to thinking about your two bearings. The bearing from
Birmingham to London is 44.54 degrees. I don't see how it is possible to
get those two values from a fixed location.
What have you done wrong or what have I done wrong?
