It was an interesting practice for me, since I really didn't know what was going on. RW was "zotsing" out on me. I'd get some of the stuff, but seemed to be missing the vast majority of it.

I doubt my firewall is the issue, since I have had RW working both ways in the past.

Frustrating...

My only observation is that you really need to cook those bombers through the target zone quickly - at the expense of accuracy.
Slow bomb runs result in all the tailgunner's flares being expended - and that makes for short bomber life.
