That's awesome.  Never in a million years would I have thought of putting float planes up on CAP.

Thats what Rufe's are for. Put them on your CS and poof you have 20+ fighters for local CAP. They are not great, but for a while they can hold their own.. Especially against unescorted bombers.

I have used resize to "shrink" sqds to fit. I have taken a US F4F sqd with 18 planes, put it on a CVE set resize and it shrunk it to fit.

Remember if it has a date to resize assigned to the sqd it will not manually resize. At least I have not been able to get them to do that.

Hmm, OK. But has anyone resized KB's groups yet? Is the safest way to set all 3 groups on a fleet carrier to resize at the same time? I think that's what Michaelm's earlier post in this thread suggests, but I want to be sure before I mess with my precious CV airgroups.
