What I heard from Cav, was something entirely different and more along the line of changing from imbalanced land grab.
No, you don't have to remove his ability to get a plane (something like ENY is supposed to do). Instead, it could shut down availability of items at front line bases. Think about ENY as a formula to predict the availability of equipment for larger number of pilots per team. A number of ways this could be an improvement IF we weren't stuck in the "land grab" win the war.
With the current AH Combat model There is no requirement to engage or even fire a shot in anger at an other player to capture a base and move the front lines. We see it happen all the time.... The lone bomber flies over town drops a few buildings And flies away...Few minutes later a hot, fast fighter, Takes down the guns in town flys away.... M3 Sitting outside town waits for the bad guys to look away.. runs in drops ten troops ... Poof!!! And that map objective changes hands Without combat. Or the others Side of the coin, Side A and B furball for three hours And no one ever runs out of the equipment.... Really?
