SP8WJT/HF8V - RED ARMY RADIOTELEGRAPH SIMULATOR - SP8WJT/HF8V ================ LUFTWAFFE AM SEE ================ OVERVIEW: It was Flying Boats and special ships which served as bases on Atlantic. Flying Boats was specific because it needed a lot of radiocommunication. Normal Acfts were very short time in the air, while FB could be 7 days or more on voyage with many inter landings (frog leaps). It needed a lot of coordination with lauches, weather services etc... FBs also communicated with coastal stations for radiotelegrams for passengers.
