I still don't see any reports or actual flying aircraft from landbases. That would also be my Main Question before release. I have done some Demo games now and i never ever saw a Singel aircraft or was able to command a single Land base Aircrafts. CVL seem to Work fine. Also i seem to have some problems in admirals mode with AV launches. Anyway the "Airbase Bug" is the only thing that really intresst me otherwise i can not wait to throw my money at you in a few Hours.  |

I'm also wondering about sorties. If Flying Boats or Medium bombers have a variety of loads, but I can only control carriers, how can I decide their operations?
Example being, if Mediums can have 500lb, 1000lb or torpedo loadouts, what will the AI use when supporting fleet operations?

You aren't supposed to control the actions of bases directly.
If you start a battle you can choose if they focus on anti shipping or suppressing other bases.

Thx but i know that, still i had battles directly in front of harbours with airbases and have never seen a Single Plane lift of from those bases and only in one cases out of ten i was even asked how my landbase airplanes should behave. So my question still stands if the bug is known and wenn will it be fixed |

I understand I don't have direct control, my question is - with Medium bombers having 4 possible loadouts, can I in any way influence what they take?
Even a doctrine choice - i.e Japan can have bombers focus on torps and long range patrol like the Betty while the US can choose to focus on 500lb bombs and skip bombing like B25s and B26s
e: If under the Air wing screen if I select a Medium bomber squadron, give me a choice of role - Recon, Torpedo, Level Bombing etc.

I expect it would choose L/M/H based on strike range, and always use torpedoes against naval targets if unlocked and a valid option for the loadout selected--I would expect that to at least be not worse than skip-bombing against unarmored ships, and considerably superior against armored ships.
