Gzorne, I know one controller drove his fighter confidently around the North Sea with the playmate as target. Sadly playmate was back at Leuchars u/s.
I am pleased to remember controlling an F15C once. I put him on 4 Buccs. Spoil sport didn't play the game and went Judy from the first call.
After he splashed one I asked if he was still happy, he immediately came back for boggie dope and I had great pleasure in calling 3 Buccs, 6 o'clock,3 miles.
I hated that kit but from time to time it did work.
