RE: Few ready aircrafts in squadrons - How to replace fastest possible?

<t> Oh one more thing: take the first column with a grain of salt: Some airplanes types are not directly "produced" (which would show up in this column), but instead "converted" from other models (which does not show up here). This is typically the case for Recon Aircraft and some aircraft exchanged ...

Given how much Cary knows about the game, you can trust his views [8D]
No mistrust intended, just wondering whether he had looked at the data on both effects separately.

RE: Few ready aircrafts in squadrons - How to replace fastest possible?

<t> Also: "Reserve" actually refers to squadrons that have not yet been deployed on the map (i.e. full units that are waiting for you to tell them were to go, not just the hardware). You might want to deploy them in a suitable airfield ("assign from national reserve" button).<br/>

You have to go through the detailed combat results - look for the damage tab. Now even then its a bit misleading as elements can be disrupted more than once (and to no extra effect) but you'll get a feel for how much you've taken out of their combat ...

there's something quirky about the P47s that I've never fully worked out (the other odd one is the P47-22). One set can also be used by Free French units (and very handy as it eases the pressure on often limited CW aircraft types), so see if ...
