Need tonnage? Go to Tanker Alley

I see we have a lot of newer Kaleuns who feel deprived and want to join the ranks of the aces.

One place where you can become a fat-cat Kaleun is in the fabled TANKER ALLEY, the place where tankers come to die (If you are there, of course).

The alley extends from BE3933 to BE3977. Draw a line between these two positions and patrol it. You will be within sound range of lots of tankers and large freighter plus the occasional ocean liner.

Another method of establishing the route: Go to the NE corner of BE39 mark a spot 10 kilometres south, then extend a line running 240 degrees. That is the center of the Alley. You will hear ships on either side.

Sometimes traffic is heavy and you will get several contacts a day, sometimes you have to have patience. The bonus is that often you will have unescorted ships running in twos.

This is also a good area from which to intercept convoys.

Use this happy hunting ground before GWX 1.4 comes out. The evil GWXers have been bribed by Winston Churchill to ruin this popular Kaleun's playground.

Visit the Spinnennetz thread in the stickies section for more killing grounds info.
