<div id="ygrps-yiv-778393731">After NOSE marker no. 1 in fair weather, you might try FINO no. 295 in<br/>
somewhat less summery circumstances:<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://home.no.net/pglider/2001/grensen/grensen.htm">http://home.no.net/pglider/2001/grensen/grensen.htm</a> (last two<br/>
photographs).<br/>
<br/>
One thing is clear to me now: the FINOSE type marker is the normal one<br/>
on the NO border.<br/>
<br/>
One question though. Why is NOSE no. 1 no. 1? In other words, why did<br/>
&quot;they&quot; start the marker count right there? To the north, the<br/>
enumeration from no. 1 is straightforward, but in the other direction<br/>
other designations are used. First (and I have this info from<br/>
Norgesglasset, just by clicking around), At the sea end of NOSE, there<br/>
are the markers I, II, IIA, IIB, IIC, then the alphabet is used: A, B,<br/>
C, D etc. (not forgetting intermediate markers like for instance KA,<br/>
KB, KC, KD, and even KBa, KBb, KBc, KBd, KBe), up to no. 1. Were these<br/>
sections established in different periods? Peter H. or Jesper, any<br/>
ideas?<br/>
