Hmm.
With a good team who [had] worked together and an I/C who really was on the ball with his blokes it became a ballet at times as it just flowed perfectly.
Then again all it took was one chippy kh and it could go lossie almost from the start....
But that is the point in the military, every man pulling together 110% to produce results from the supplier and cook down to the end product, all working in harmony to accomplish the task. It was never all about a pilot hitting the target, but about a whole range of people pulling together to attain the final goal, the pilot was just the end " product" in the delivery chain and any one of them faltering could break it.
