You'd have a single leader responsible for getting his flight up off the ground. Many planes. Circling and forming up. That took a lot longer than your average Joe who wants to just get some trigger time before dinner is served in 10 minutes.
They'd have to climb ans climb and wait for the bombers they escorted.
They used all the fuel they had to in order to perform the job.
The result was they could only spend a few minutes over London because of all that plus their equipment limitations.
It wasn't just stick a new slice of gum in your mouth and fire up the PC. It was a lot of work especially for flight leaders who often insisted on being the first up and last to land.
We gamers do not appreciate nor comprehend the enormity of the task that we use to play this game.
