Hi!

Obviously GWX 2.0 has removed all tails from contact reports... and while I can dig that for single contact reports, I do think its a bit unrealistic for convoys.

I mean, wasn't the whole point of the "contact holder" to update the incoming wolfpack with pretty accurate information regarding course, speed and position?
I don't think a simple "south east" as course information would have cut it back then...

What do you guys think? And is there a way to have only the convoys with tails on the nav map?

cheers!
