We do that when we can. We prefer the mid war setup but because the numbers are low we ususally have to have the bomber pilots back out so the escorts can get thier fighters [38s, 51s, or 47s] and then the bombers come back in. IF a fighter pilot comes in after the mission has started hes out of luck.
As for my suggestion, its not about me or my sqaud. I don't understand why the ENY system is the way it is now. It would however make more sense to see the upper planes become perked or increase in perk value [like the 262 is] when the numbers become imbalanced. That way sqauds don't have to be split up between 2 rooms.
For example a late fighter jock comes in and can't get a long range fighter to hook up with the group because the sqauds that joined the mission bumped up the numbers for that side. He may be stuck flying a P-40 which doesn't have the range as the 51s or 47s do.
