And there's the one that really nails the biggest benefit for us of having more planes early/late models.
This is where the CT will shine. And (IMHO) what has been hurting it. The CM's having to stretch years of operation for various models to try to balance an unbalanced planeset. Having to sub in planes that never flew in those TO's at all for the same reason. It gets old after awhile, and for new people looking for something different from the MA, its just too drastic a change with the sometimes VERY limited planesets.
Now someone can pop into a PTO setup and have a little more choice for a ride. On the US side anyway. If we get a Ki-43 and a Betty things will really start looking up for the Japs. The more planes we get to choose from and to fill in holes, the better the CT will perform and the more fun it will be. I'm not touching the modelling issues. But I am happy with the current trend, and I hope it continues.
