Hey Gums, hope you are well.
My Dad was an AEO on Vulcans in the 50's and 60's, and they frequently did very well on these exercises in Canada and the USA. He never told me any details but they were apparently one of the top crews.
Many years later we had to make an unscheduled stop at Goose Bay*, and one of 'my Dad's' Vulcans is the gate guardian there.
