Sourcerer flew from London Stansted to Tenerife South airport for a four week visit to the island. By chance the flight passed under 10 arc seconds from this hashpoint. This is more fun than watching the low resolution flight progress screen (Ryanair doesn't even have these screens). My Garmin device logged me 294 metres from the HP. Google earth said 302 metres. 10 arc seconds is 310 metres so this was a close thing.
