Title: RADAR Floor Broken
Post by: funkedup on August 16, 2001, 10:52:00 PM
Took 7 Spitfires NOE tonight and we had a friendly radar bar moving as we crossed into each sector, even though our highest plane was about 150 feet.  We hoped it was showing for friendlies only, but LW confirmed there was a bar showing after they intercepted us.  We were the only friendlies in the sector.

cc Funked,back in the Norway map Camo set 2 missions in a row wiht Junkers escorted by 109 and 190s...the other side always found us even when they were flying at no more than 300feet

Finally I asked in private to a guy of the other side who confirmed that we were making a HUGE red bar in their Radar..

I hope it gets fixed soon  :)

yeah. All this flying at 25 feet AGL under a threat of losing nuts (funkedUp is a fearless leader) if we go any higher for nothing, heh?

I flew a NOE spit flight at 25ft (twenty-five) and caught 2 109's apparently by surprise. Which leads me to think that maybe it does work - but under 50ft rather than 500ft?

Pyro knows this first-hand...

The other day I put up a mission with Ju88s and 109s, intended to be NOE all the way up to the british coast.

Just to be sure, I asked someone in the RAF side. Happened that Pyro was on at that moment so I asked him.

We were at 200feet...but dar showed us   :(

I hope it gets fixed soon  :)
