I chose this type of approach because I wanted to see how they appeared without friendly ack pointing at them.
Next we have some shots looking down at the base as I close in on the first con I was looking at.
It's all pretty clear but I'll do this again tomorrow with a darker map.
You can see the con pretty clearly now

The ack has no trouble seeing me that's for sure

No trouble hitting them at night either, but then again they aren't shooting back either

Again hard to see, but this is checking out the next con in line.

But that ack has got to go

As you can see there is no trouble seeing the targets on this map, I'll post a darker one tomorrow.

Now I'm not getting shot at, back to the issue of seeing the aircraft.
![](http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a217/sarahjeanb/Peters/ahss35.jpg)
Pretty clearly a P51D

Close escort?
![](http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a217/sarahjeanb/Peters/ahss37.jpg)
A P38 on the other side of the ring.
![](http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a217/sarahjeanb/Peters/ahss41.jpg)
Closer. Still no troubles picking it out.
![](http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a217/sarahjeanb/Peters/ahss42.jpg)
And there they are.

If this was the MA he'd be very surprised at the sudden disappearance of his lead

Going home.
![](http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a217/sarahjeanb/Peters/ahss45.jpg)
There it is!
![](http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a217/sarahjeanb/Peters/ahss46.jpg)
Approach.
![](http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a217/sarahjeanb/Peters/ahss47.jpg)
Trimmed up hands free in landing configuration.

And it's back on the deck.

All up I really do not see the same issues with night we used to have. I say bring it on!
