But could Benson find you?
A nice clear summer's day, and climbing out of Abingdon heading towards the towers
Benson radar called us up and asked us to turn on to heading xxx for ident
We complied.
A short while after Benson, again, asked for a turn, for ident, followed by the message "We still don't have you."
The only possible response from our end - a Tyro c/s - was "Benson, if it's of any help, we have you visual."
