Organising flights in a multisquad campaign.

[Osprey]

Well they would see them, reckon at least bomber or fighter, and perhaps count numbers, heading and height but it would get harder with height, it would be worth investigating the kind of work they did for the sake of accuracy. They used apparatus to help them and may have been hooked into the network of RDF or passed information about incoming raids in order to help gain more information.

With regards to knocking out radar, the RAF system had mobile units with a shorter range which could be moved to plug the gap. I believe this happened on August 12th and the screen was back up inside an hour as a result. On that day they though they were more successful and decided to test with Stuka's off North Foreland. 501 got stuck into them and slaughtered them.
