I should like a little help on 2 matters

1) I am sure I have seen somewhere some mention of a mod which correctly retracts the periscope but I cannot locate it . I am currently sailing a 1XB and the periscope protrudes up into the Bridge area when retracted. If anyone could point me in the direction of such a mod I should appreciate it.

2) My other question relates to the harbour traffic in GW. This has always been very impressive but I am puzzled re the friendly aircraft which overfly the bases (St Nazaire, Lorient, Brest). I recall that on my first few missions (1940) as I departed ,there were frequent flights of ME109s which flew over the area----but during my last few few departures(1940, 1941) I have seen no aircraft at all. Can anyone comment on or explain this . I am puzzled by their total disappearance.
Many thanks for any feedback
