Have just seen post 176, I think it was, from bucketyr. Bonjour Guy? The Midland Radar overhead would have absorbed anything in its path let alone the Wash ATA, assuming they weren't continged for lunch or a unit photo.
"Thank you for calling Midland Radar. I'm afraid we can't take your call at the moment, but if you leave your callsign, positition, heading, level and type of service required, we'll get back to you as soon as possible."
Thank goodness we were at Eastern eh?

...he fired 2 or 3 rounds into the prostrate enemy to break away. Now you all know the power of an SLR. This guy took 3 rounds in the head at less that 4 feet and SURVIVED.
I'm a confirmed lurker, but I nearly sprayed my coffee when I read that. How is that even possible? There's no way all three rounds (if any) entered the skull - his brain would be mush a la JFK, surely? If was an HP, maybe...
