In 1937, with career Army Air Corps crews, over Arizona with little

wind
it
worked great! In 1943 with crews that had been in service 18 months,

over
Germany with flak and fighters...not so well.


How the hell would you know?

Except a two mile long train of B-17s looks like donuts rolling off the
production line to an Me-109 pilot.


We never flew in "long trains". What rinky dink air force were you in?

Not
ours for sure. Too bad you never fought in a real war.


Jeez, Art! He was *agreeing* with you.


What a hoot! A couple of weeks ago Art was hammering one of his own, and now
he hammers Bufdrvr when he supports his own argument. Then of course he had
to add that tagline of his about "real wars"...where are all of his usual
cast of posterior-embracing buddies now?
