millions thx my friend for kind words!
angle was a real code used in the raf ,in fact it is angle for altitude ,i read it in the book " LE GRAND CIRQUE "write by the 1st french ace of ww2 PIERRE CLOSTERMANN,who joigned the RAF .
in the extract of this book ,the radar operator said to him :
...HULLO DALMAT RED ONE ,PANDOR CALLING , BANDITS APPROACHING B FOR BAKER AT ANGLES Z FOR ZEBRA ...in fact b-baker is a code name for an area and angle Z is a code name for altitude Z ,in the case of PIERRE CLOSTERMANN fight ,Z is a letter code for 40000 feets!130000 meters of altitude.
it seems that the code name for altitude " angels "was used too ,or maybe one of this 2 words is wrong because of the confusion and stress during a battle ,pilots say angles instead of angels or inversaly ,or just a print error.
thx again sincerely
