Hi
I've created Ferry Groups to bring replacements to some depleted Air Groups (But there are many options, so I don't know if I used the right one)
Now I have the following message in the Status repport
"Ferry Airgroup Fokker F.VII Ferry 81 at 70.126 Ready for assignment"
and
"0(1) Fokker F.VII in pool delay box of Nationalist Spain"
Any idea about that and what to do next ?
Thanks
JMA

Make sure that the Ferry groups get to an airfield, let them repair, and then fly the group towards the air unit that needs the aircraft.

You are welcome.
You also need to have the air unit accept replacements or add them yourself when the ferry unit is within range.

A ferry group is primarily necessary for aircraft that use lend-lease types.
For example, all Russian air units are actually equipped with Spanish aircraft. This is so that after disbandment these aircraft will find themselves in the Spanish pools.
And German and Italian nationalist (with a few exceptions).
For these nations it is necessary to make a ferry group, otherwise you will not replenish them.
For regular national or republican air units this is not necessary,
You can replenish directly from the pools.
An exception may be for some isolated air units, where the path to the pools is interrupted.
