Once we get CO's lined up, we'll set a start date.  We don't want to set the start date first, as sometimes, it takes a while to get CO's lined up.

The topic for people to volunteer to be a CO is here:

Some suggestions for being a CO or GL is available here:

Don't know about the fog visibility question -- that's one for Newman to answer.

According to the settings in the writeup, radar and sector counters are off:  "RadarMode[Bishops], Disable Friendly Counters and Disable Enemy Counters, No radar" and same for other countries.

My test on fog at 4 miles gave the Buffs a 20-21K alt before the bomb site got Foggy  ;)

We didn't try with bombsights. We lifted goons in full updrafts and flew "level" until we couldn't see and more.

Just a question.. Why no Seafire units from the CVs?

Same Question he asked if you please.

Seems in these events just about every time the SEAFIRE is droped from the aircraft list in favor of the F4F-4/FM-2 for some reason.  :rolleyes:
Historicly the Seafires were in operation at the time of HUSKY from Royal Navy carriers in Theater.

Inquireing minds would like to know.........
