505. You are on a voyage from Nome to Honolulu via Unimak Pass (LAT 54° 30' N, LONG 164° 30' W). The great circle track passes through a point at LAT 38° 00' N, LONG 161° 40' W. Using gnomonic chart WOXZC 5270, determine which answer is TRUE. (The great circle distance, Unimak Pass to Honolulu, is 2013 miles.)
On a nearly north-south route, the rhumb line is close to due south, resulting in minimal distance difference compared to a great circle track.
