watch out Stefan - you might be deemed
anti-capitalist again ;-))
Here's an example of Zeus' divine Beacon
bashing: HGA has just been thrown off air for 35 minutes - struck by
lightning!

Old RAF terminology : )
G..
No 62 OTU took over the Airborne Interception (AI) Training Flight from
No. 3 RS, consisting of 10 Ansons and an initial course of 24 pupils. The
unit's projected establishment was to be three squadrons, each with 14 Ansons,
14 pilots and 14 observer-instructors. Each aircraft was fitted out as a
flying classroom with duplicate AI indicators so that the instructor could
monitor the pupil's interpretation of what was being seen on the cathode ray
tube, while a second pupil watched the target's behaviour visually form the
front seat as he listened to the commentary over the intercom. When the time came to act as the target aircraft, the pupils were
expected to keep their pilot on track between two radar beacons, a boring but
useful exercise known as 'beacon
bashing'

Dear LF,
please excuse my lack of English proficiency, but
what does the term "beacon bashing" mean? Must be something like
"assaulting beacons in public", finger pointing at their operators, or
repeatedly claiming they are the root of all evil on the
band...
But, who would ever do such a thing?
Best 73,
Markus
