Thoughts?

all the time.

once are in your patrol area, you can do a box pattern search or a ladder search or you can set down in the middle of the path and wait for your radar operator to sing out with a contact. it depends on your patrol area.
depending on your mod set your area may draw a lot of traffic or none at all...which has happened to me. if you are shut out for a few days, you need to go on the hunt...find the closest shipping lane.
