I don't know if this is a reported bug (I had mentioned this situation in the past), but I am watching Egland send aircraft (fighters) for the from the Home Islands, down through occupied France, over Italy, and on to Africa. I know this is way over the range of these aircraft, and I could never do that when I was England. Does anyone know what is up with that?

Correct. If you are in the flight path, you are simply screwed. I used to set up a five province interceptor line from Lubeck down to Switzerland in 1.05 But in 1.06 I've had so many size 12 rebased bombers and fighters run into my interceptors that I curtailed the intercept line to just three provinces. Then the rebasing fighters run between Switzerland and my protected zone and I do not encounter them.

Since Tedder frequently leads one of these groups, you've got a skill 5 night flyer banging into your group of 2 or 3 fighters and you get creamed. If it happens once, it's likely to happen again so just move your guys out of the flight path.

Thanks for the clarification gentlemen, I can deal with it as long as it is a known un-fixable problem. I have also set up a massive fighter intercepter force around Paris to say "hello" as the Brits fly by. I plan on keeping them their until I launch "Barbarossa".
