I know what they mean and what they should do but I'm confused.

For instance most level bombers can be set to attack ports and airfields that exceed their extended range. Why?

Transports can carry supply and troops passed their extended range. This makes some sense as they could refuel at the destination levl bombers can't.

I've just had a thought I'm using the range rings as a guide. Are they wrong?

Normal = full load of supplies, troops, bombs (black ring)

Extended = light load of supplies, troops, bombs (red ring)

Maximum = ferry type missions - one way trip (not shown)

Due to circles and hexes not matching quite perfectly, the circle may be off by a hex or two at times.

One of the reasons I asked for an actual rangefinder to be added to the game where you can click between to hexes and have the game tell you the real range...
