...in SHIII's night sky real?

And if so, has anyone determined their accuracy?

Putting to sea at night from Wilhelmshaven, clear sky, slow departure in a Type IIA, and the question just dawned on me. Quite lovely, either way.

Very nice ... thank you (and my apologies for not using the search feature for what would have been an easy search).

Actually, using the search function might not have necessarily been an easy search. The search function here is notoriously inefficient, and that was my first complaint when I started frequenting this website. But its worth a try.
