I think the original plan was to have just RDF this weekend, ie no human controllers, but Wolverine was doing so much more than just guiding everyone to the bombers by the shortest route so I think we need both. That assumes we have willing controllers of course; I would be happy to just use RDF if Wolverine would rather fly.

RDF actually provides an interception vector from the position of your aircraft to the enemy group. The interception is very accurate as long as you follow the course you've been given by the system. The system mimics the Fighter Command system during the BOB in that it has all of the delays and filtering problems simulated. What a human controller can do is keep crews on the ground and order them to scramble or to position themselves - otherwise you'll have everyone piling in at once.

Please be aware the brief for saturday has changed.

THis was so mission makers could insert another mission due to the rerun last sunday, please check your briefs on SOW forum!

Please spread the word!

Moggel is working hard extending the Fight Command system so that:

a) Groups of human pilots are detected
b) Luftwaffe can call their command to rendezvous with bomber groups.

This should be introduced fairly soon guys and lead to greater immersion as the fighters escort the bombers tightly.

Looks like it'll be here this weekend Osprey!
