This might be the longest time to intercept I've ever seen!

111th Sentai with Ki-84a Frank (0 airborne, 0 on standby, 0 scrambling)
58 plane(s) not yet engaged, 0 being recalled, 0 out of immediate contact.
Group patrol altitude is 20000 , scrambling fighters to 23270.
Time for all group planes to reach interception is 642 minutes

Some of the planes got there in time to engage but I have to believe the stragglers didn't find much...

What is their range set to? Is it possible that they were out on "CAP" several hexes away or something (thought it says 0 being recalled...)? As you said, of the 58 planes, not all of them showed up?

The message does say 642 minutes for all planes to reach interception.

Day 575 of the Great War for the Emperor.
�
Me feels motivation slowly dwindling. You know, its wet, all day rain, mosquitos in night, snakes and bad food at day.
Have the runs for 2 week now. And what do? Advance maybe? Victory? Nooooo!
�
You know, day in day out, shouting "Incoming raid! Ararm! Get to the ****ing fighters! Faster!". Such stuff.
Always running to plane, not matter what one does before.
On toilet? Without pants? Does not matter. Eating? Does not matter. Sleep? No way matter.
�
Next time the start shouting stuff again I will go slowry. Take time. Walk to plane. First think about walk to plane. First breakfast even. Maybe shower.
And if meet that sweet geisha from last week maybe chat a bit.
��
Noone check combat report anyway.

If they launched right away they'd hit bingo fuel before the raid arrived...

642 minutes

It's in Mayan binary AE code, and it means - 6 x 2 = 24 / 2 = 12 minutes.
