Will someone rid me of Soviet biplanes?

As Soviet player I'm now sorely tempted to rail the factories up to the front line to let the Germans have them. Shame they won't be able to use them as that would be a great way to b#gg~r up the Luftwaffe

I don't mind the transport and recon versions so much. They bring a lot of utility to the table and the monoplane types for these don't get produced in large numbers.
The U2Vs can die in a fire, however. I wind up converting a lot of these over to shturmoviks (and this is practically the only time I spend APs on the Red Air Force.)
Railing these factories to, say, Gomel, sounds pretty good to me.

I just tried that in my PBEM v Carnage. I railed them all to a city north of Vitebsk.
I wish I had thought of it sooner, though, because it just occured to me that I might recapture those factories. Then what? I could have moved them Turn 2 to Odessa or something like that.
