Route Card Commentary

So now we took to the skies for the ever popular helicopter ride. This was your other joint favourite with an average rank of 8.2. One person gave up, declaring their hatred of it, I can only guess they didn't think how the display speed could be controlled. No big issues and alternate answers are described below:

RC5 - some commented that there was no dot for SH53 but, although faint, it's definitely there on my printed map. However, as usual under these circumstances, answers with and without 53 were accepted.
RC6 - usual comments about which numbers to include. The benefit of the doubt was given on two of them.
RC9 - answers of 15 or 16 allowed because the gated white in GS9540 gives the same length of route as going via the yellow.

Route Card winner: Gavin Rogers
