The recon flights were still made Art. Since the RAF were flying tight
formations
comparing the in-aircraft camera pictures with the after strike recon
photos was the only way of establishing individual accuracy

What was the point? If you are flying tight formation indivual planes
can't correct for drift. Were they not dropping when the lead did and
trying measure the single dimension?

Sorry I misstyped

I should have said the RAF were NOT flying tight formations

Yeah. I wondered about that. (grin)
