Big or Small Airgroups

Is there any edge to having 1 group of 22 fighters or 2 of 11 - aside from the flexibility issue?
Will those small early game AG's get "fleshed out" as the game goes along so they become full sized units?

All AGs have a maximum size listed. If they get divided they try to automatically reunite. Having 2 smaller groups does give more flexibility than 1 larger one. Advantages and disadvantages go both ways.

Depends on your personal preferences I'd say.
If I have two AGs at half their maximum strength, I usually disband one to max out the other.
But, as stated before, it's personal preference IMHO

I usually do this if the replacement pool is depleted and especially if it is depleted and has a very low rate of replenishment.

An a/g of 11 fighters could come in handy as a fifth slot in an understrength CV where 22 planes would put you over the 10% rule, turning the carrier into a ferry.
