Unfortunately there was a massive CB to the left, so he asked the controller if he could turn right. The controller told him that there was an artillery barrage currently going on to the right. He chose the lesser of two evils. He went right, straight through the barrage...
So even back THEN CX would do ANYTHING not to fly through a CB! Now I see why avoiding ANYTHING on the radar is so ingrained!
