I doesn't matter where the contact is, England, Channel, or France, if an aircraft is positioned to "spot" them. You don't even have to be able to see the aircraft, it just has to be within some sort of range where it could be detected.

I build tons of maps testing this, and I'm 100% positive there are no working radars for either side.
Well that's even more interesting and, I'm afraid Tomcat, it simply means that friendlies are doing what they would do, reporting their sightings.

Of course it would be nice to think we had RDF/GCI capability too, we'd get to the Blues even quicker
