Advancing LOPs Advancing LOPs Several  methods  may  be  used  to  advance  a  LOP.  The  most  common method  consists  simply  of  advancing  the  AP  in  the  direction  of  and  for the  distance  of  the  run,  as  shown  in  figure  9-13,  and  drawing  the  new LOP. Figure  9-13  illustrates  a  situation  where  the  AP  was  advanced  parallel  to the  course  line  for  the  distance  run,  and  a  new  LOP  was  plotted  from  its new  position.  The  new  LOP  was  necessary  because  the  same  AP  would have  produced  an  LOP  that  would  have  intersected  the  course  line beyond  the  limits  of  the  chart.  In  this  illustrative  case,  it  is  unnecessary to  draw  the  first  dashed  construction  on  the  chart. The  manner  of  advancing  LOP  from  sights  of  the  Moon,  Venus,  and Sirius  (previously  illustrated)  to  obtain  an  1815  fix  is  seen  in  figure 9-14. 9-29
