Excellent work and subject yet again!

I have often wondered how many aircrew were able survive a combat by using the clouds to their advantage. It's been spoken of often and the numbers, on all sides, must be quite substantial. On the other hand, clouds were also a contributing factor of many losses, especially night flying into icing conditions, lack of instrument experience, etc.

Great work, No.1.
