I'm still tempted by the Channel though--if its ever going to be possible 1939 would be the best time to try it.

With a VIIB you have enough fuel to go around the north to the bay of Biscay and back. I am patrolling BF 47 at the moment and have plenty to get home. So South of Ireland is no problem...
