Last nite was the every other week Wings of War game. We tried a "sun" forthe first time, and it was pretty neat. The dead zone for planes coming out of the sun is: the distance from enemy plane from the sun to 1.5x that distance. Thus, a plane 12 inches from the sun is invisible to enemies 12"-18" up-sun from them. I was the first victim of the Hun in the Sun. Dave managed to get two planes to attack my recce plane. Unfortunately for him, they were so close they collided twice (with little damage). The German air force claimed the skies this nite, but my planes, at least this time didn't get shot down.
