Same concept kill drift, compute crosswind, time, distance, heading for a

DR

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

Les


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.
