That would be hard with no contacts displaying on the map though. I can still draw the line manually, but this gives me nothing regarding distance to target.

I'm more afraid of bumping into an escort than losing contact entirely - the convoy makes a really strong noise and moves rather slow, so I can regularly dive and get close if the noise starts to fade, but I'd rather find a parallel course somehow to shadow the convoy from safe distance.

Edit: Oh, and additional question - this convoy is coming out of the Channel and into Atlantic or towards Gibraltar, either way it is still in Luftwaffe's range. If the weather clears and I send contact report, what are my chances of getting air support in stock 1.4b SH3? (like, "One in million, baby!" or "They mostly come within an hour. Mostly."?)
