Ah, Tourist,

That does not mean that in todays world you can plink warships at will with 100lb bombs.
You meant 1000lbs, I know.

I never said we would! I was talking about the 70s and, unless you missed it, the Bucc went out of service in 1994!

Eh, Darvan, you have the better of me in knowing who's who on PPRuNe but all I can say on this:

the only way 12 and 208 could routinely achieve a CEP of 'less' than 300 ft for a toss event in the mid to late 80s was to replace MT with 4 second VT.
is standards must have dropped since my day!

Oh, Skeleton,

Really? Thank you for your ringing endorsement of mine and others Buccaneer knowledge.
See above to Darvan and, like he, standby for PM Ident.

Uh, BEagle,

Were you involved in that OP. FRISTON on 1 Sep 1988?
Not I said the fly, after 4 tours on Blackburn's Best Bomber I had moved onto Mother Riley's Cardboard Aeroplane in 1986.

Hi, John Farley,

Well thank you, kind sir.

Always good to find the odd decent post on PPRuNe.
Oh, Tourist, I challenge you to a 'speed by second bow wave' calculation debate. You see not all of us light blue fly boys are ignorant of dark blue ways!!!! Lol!
