The General (a close up...) - Dave - 06-11-2020
Finally got a chance to render this video from 5/31
in which photographing the General got some unexpected
(but welcome) results.
This would not have been possible without training
in the Beaufighter from TWC_Blacknight.
Flug, can you elucidate what the sequence of events really is?
Best I can figure out is that the 1st recon from 20k will give
a grid square location for the General.
A closer pass, (not sure how close) will give the
exact Knickerbein co-ords of the General for bombing etc...
Now, I cannot remember "if" the Knickerbein Co-Ords were already
up before this run, but I wanted to get within that "100 meters" thingy
to get a yellow banner, & then shoot the crap out of him to see if I could
get a 2nd yellow banner. I know I was within 100meters on the 1st pass
with no joy, but the 2nd, taking the tops off the trees yielded a
treasure trove of data/plans about where they planned to attack that day!
This info was then printed under the tactical planning board telling red
what the specific Blue objectives were to roll the map!
Totally unexpected, & freakin' awesome!

it was this little encounter on the way to The General...
