Pardon me BS, you're right about thread drift but I just can't help myself

...to mark a datum
...to ascertain drift
...for data collection and post flight analysis by more capable (bigger) acoustic processors.
And therein lies the problem...some of us know a little bit about oceanography, acoustics processing, frequency spectrums, sound propagation, search arrays, and all sorts of boring maritime stuff....owing to us spending alifetime doing it.
And many more on pprune know **** all about it. But somehow it doesn't stop them reaching for their keyboards and spewing all manner of cr@p out...and worse, arguing the the sh1t with us, when we try and educate them otherwise.

...we have no MPA... - don't tell the ASW Merlin crews that
Well done to all involved - the article made it into the North's finest paper as well (Northern Scot) so no escaping the slabs! A few photos were included, they caught all of the TACCO's chins nicely (just kidding mate!)
