Hey Art, did you guys have a drift meter? Curious.

No, but we had better. The Norden bombsight was the world's best driftmeter. If
you cranked out the drift by stopping the vertical hair, it would give you the
angle needed to correct the drift and track driift free. We call it a bomb
run. (grin). Can't beat that.
