Interesting - I don't see Govenors Island at the Southern tip of Manhattan. Back then it would have been owned and operated by the ARMY and had an extensive battery on it. There's a fort at the foot of the VZ bridge too (fort Wadsworth) - surely you wouldn't have gotten in the Harbor during the day in RL --

is that with the settings on high?

Could the type 7's actually reach New York?
I always thought that it was the 9's that were used in Drumbeat and the Second Happy Times.
Interesting...

Not from northern ports. I refueled on the way, nevertheless I had 4% left in my tanks when I got back and I made no diversions other than a quick look in at Boston which is sort of on the way...Official range is 8190nm at 10 knts which is pretty much what I did the whole way

It's fine.
There's a bubble around the buildings so you can't actually hit them.
A bunch of my campaign files were deleted so now I'm in the "Pout Faze" but I can't wait for Operation Drumbeat!!!

Ok - this time I read the entire log. I get the fact that you were there at night - though the screen shots look more like daylight hours.

But the fact Governors Island isn't there off the tip of Manhattan in one of your distant shots makes me wonder where the topography data came from. not pointing a finger at you - just an unusual thing to be missing such a predominant fixture to New York harbor.
