A picture of the Dalton computor was faxed to the Tornado Navs in Bahrain in GW1 because they continually berated their tanker crews whilst transiting westwards against the subtropical jet. They kept calling "we're late,we're late speed up to 320kts" or similar. Once the turn was made northeastwards for the dropoff, the realisation that we were now early, dawned.
