Strangest QRA Intercept
Way back when I was on a F4s an old Lightning pilot once recalled how he had been launched on QRA in 8/8ths clag sea level to God.....He picked up the contact, stern conversion and closed in for a Phase 3 VID from above. As he approached min range he could eventually make out a Delta winged aircraft, a little bigger than his own with NO COCKPIT!!.....he could see enough to close even further. After a period of bafflement the cloud eventually cleared enough for him to see that he had actually done a VID on the High-T tail of a VC10!!!!....One to tell the grandchildren!!
