Hrm. Interesting that you were making runs on a US B-29 and not a British Washington. Didn't know the USAF used them outside of the US except for the one deployment to the UK during the Berlin Airlift. After that, they were quickly retired or replaced by B-50s and the B-36.

That shot was taken over Holland in a Ground Radar controlled interception and the USAF were certainly taking part in the exercise :smile:
