Has anyone done this?

I figured out that the stadimeter can help with range and bearing estimations, and finally sunk the cruiser in training. I never had a good solution, though, I am assuming the button lights up when it is good? I put two torps into him, and he had a nice list. After several misses, I finally got a bearing, but saw he was turning, so I set my offset left and scored the final hit. Blew those planes right off his deck. I will have to do this some more before I take on a DD.

Absolutely!! I did a recon mission a night or two ago and took photos of everything in the harbor, including one of those Kawanishi Mavis seaplanes that was sitting in there. I had already shot the destroyers off of my tail on my way in. (I'm getting rather good at that now.) So, I knew there wouldn't be any interference from them while I took my photos. I got to thinking, "What the heck do I need to do a recon for when I can just sink everything in sight?"

So I did. I even surfaced and shot up that Mavis. It felt good. I'm glad that Mavis is just made up of pixels because otherwise, it would break my heart to shoot up such a cool airplane.
