Hi Obltn Strand,

I'm glad you like it! Any feedback about the ZZ patterns?

Meanwhile I have done several patrols with the ZZ patterns. No problems encountered so far. What I like more and more is the inaccuracy of the radio contact's course. Now you have to guess the true course of a radio contact (where the contact might be going, to which port,...)

Here are more examples of hunting convoys (note the length of the chase. In one case it took me almost 150km until I could sink the first ship (in 1943 with escorts carrying radar). When I positioned myself ahead of the convoy it made a ZZ and I had to crawl away, do an end-around, and position myself again. All the time receiving radar warnings

).
