When the cross hair sight from No 2 Gun in No 1 Turrett with 40 degrees of elevation meets the cross + hair of the building, then the BB is parked correctly  :embarrassed:


So whilst some may view this as a joke, in 1997, her Little Sister BB63 berthed outside my office @ Garden Island........a few days later after all of the General Public fuss was over, being Weapons people, we were offered a guided tour of the vessels weapons systems


The 3 guns from each No 1 & 2 Turrets were parked at the regulatory 40 degrees elevation......and yes the cross + hair from the No 2 Gun Sight from No 1 Turrett was squared off directly at a Sydney skyscraper building some 200m away :o


Again, just co-incidence?.......but fact  O0

I was reading a club Newsletter yesterday and it mentioned a member's models and one named 'Kinnel'.  He was asked where the name came from.

 The answer, "It is part of a phrase I use when things are not quite going right"  %%

To be perfectly honest the guns are actually pointing down the street - there is probably a junction with a traffic camera that if you jump the lights you get a 1 ton shell land on you.
