Not more planes!!!!

[Nedlam]

Call it carless or stupid but I've modified my concept of Dive! Dive! Dive! Everytime my WO reports planes sighted especially when they are at long range. I get a few reports first to see what their bearing and distance are. If they appear to be closing then I dive. Of course the weather at the time has a lot to do with the decision.

I didn't realize RuB made them more lethal. It sure doesn't make them more accurate. I'm more worried about them spotting me and reporting it to the Royal Navy than them actually hitting me. I've received minor damage once and that was one of those lovely times when as I'm getting the warning I can hear the whining of the planes engines as it is making it's attack run.

Which leads me to a question that's bugged me. Does using the crash dive command make your U-Boat go down any quicker than if I first hit Flank speed then either the periscope depth or dive command? In shallow water "crash dive" is a bad thing
