'Back end captains'.

I never had a problem.

Pointy end had responsibility for ensuring that the ac is in the right place at the right time etc

TacNav/AEO (or WSO 1 and 2 ?) were responsible for the tactics.

Captain had the deciding vote.

The operators made sure that the TacNav had all the information required to determine appropriate tactics.

No snags.

kipper.

Although the big badge sqn did have a Society Against Back End Captains (SABEC)
