I am intrigued as to how targeting and aiming was done in a 90deg dive. As Winkle says you can correct for azimuth errors in a 70deg dive by ailerons but surely that’s not available in a pure vertical dive? When you tip in you’re either directly above the target (unlikely) or you have to make a correction leading to a less than purely vertical dive. Can someone explain please?
