Jenkins,
Not a serious issue in my day. At Song Song they would call on the last pass and join up on the range to track for initial 36 (usually via west of Penang) or depart the range in trail for a down wind rejoin. Fitting them in a busy GCA pattern for 18 was sporting, to say the least, particularly if we had a Bulldog in the sequence. .
The bombing I observed near Bukit Mertajam, as noted in my post was real time against CT's. But don't tell the Australian Government: they still insist the actions at the time I was there were "not warlike". Guess those black bags being taken off the TUDM
Alouettes on many afternoons contained body shaped logs. Only last week I was explaining to an associate here in paradise the difference between POB and SOB.
