So far, being sighted by a plane is sure death for me. I don't mind it being difficult but so far it seems impossible. I do not run submerged all day. In Jan 1943 I should not have too. In Jan 1944, I can see it but if that is required in Jan 1943 I would say that is not historically accurate. I believe being sunk within 60 seconds of getting a radar detected report is not right either. The planes spent many hours patrolling and did not have their finger on the trigger 24/7. They would have to adjust to make an attack approach while covering the distance from detecting the U-boat, the same as their radar signal being picked up. That can not be under 5 minutes but under the most rare of circumstances and certainly not the norm, as has been my case to date. It might be the 1024TC does not slow down fast enough when it changes by the signal report and therefore the plane has already gone the 4 out of 5 minutes needed to close and you have been unable to take any action as you would and should have.
