I'm inclined to believe that was coincidental if it was WOFF PE or UE. But I could be wrong. Hopefully Polovski will chime in to confirm if such actions were coded.
Nevertheless, that would have been an exciting experience to observe!

Oh no Robert, not coincidence, I've had it happen numerous times in the past, and again just recently with my DID pilot and a Gotha over St. Omer. And Sailor, I agree, it's the little touches like this that make this sim so very cool.
Cheers,
Lou

I obviously stand corrected then Lou. Any idea if it was in UE or came in PE?? I guess I missed it due to so few night missions.

I can confirm what Lou said, (as if there were any doubt about the quality of his word) I have seen the searchlights tracking many a foe on an early morning scramble. Not that it ever helps me get to them to shoot down, as it is still really dark! I believe it goes back quite a way, probably before the UE...

I can confirm what Rick said about confirming what Lou said about the search lights tracking enemy planes. What I’ve never seen is the search lights on the German side. Always on the French side of the mud. Anyone ever experienced them east of the trenches?
