Honestly. I dont understand the limit of 15 per plane. If it is lag/space/coading/whatever issues then i would completely understand but as of now id love to see other choices for plane skins that are not used now...

It is a video memory and video performance issue. Every skin that is in view of your FE has to be loaded into video memory and there is only so much of that available.

What plane and skins did you have in mind?

I tried to get an answer for this as well

"Could we have a rotational block of 15 skins every 3-6 months? Or a rotational blocks of the popular planes?
<This would increase the number of skins x2 or x4.>"
But I think Fencer had a better idea. <I think> It was to offer all skins for download and let the players select which ones they want, up to the 15 limit per plane.
This seems like it would be good for htc as well. Instead of having a big production to switch skins, they could simply upload them to the game as they are submitted/approved?, the wait time after submission would go away.
Keep the defualt skin and in the drop down box show only the skins the player has downloaded, no placeholders.
I have maybe 16-20 skins total downloaded for the planes I like to fly ..that's it.

Every 3 months? LMAO!
Heck, they often don't get new skins packs out every 6-12 months, let alone rotate existing skins!!
Apparently, Skuzzy got a lot of grief from some squadron that lost a skin in one of the rotations. They were a 1-plane squad or some such and only flew the 1 skin maybe? Regardless, he now says they will rarely ever rotate the skins out.

More P-51's and whatever some one has put their time and effort into making for free so the rest of us might enjoy it. You didn't ask me though did you? :D

I very much would like to see new skins rotated in the game. Or some revision to the rotation process of some sort.

I agree!
