CzechTexan,
Thanks for your answer, I knew the tip and that's what i did.
Don't worry, i find your missions really very interesting, giving the taste of real action. The great number of planes causes the missions to be quite confused and totally unpredictable which indeed was most probably the case of most real WWII air actions (and of most air action of any time i think). Personnally, i prefer by far missions that sound realistic (and if possible with an historical basis if not strictly historical); i find missions with only 2 or 3 planes on each side quite boring (even if this kind of thing surely did happen). BTW i have the book of Chris Shores "Air War Over Burma" you used to make the campaign; a very goog basis for making missions like all his books.
As a conclusion, i found your missions near perfect (i just allowed myself to modifiy slightly the skil of aI pilots by using Quick Mission Tuner). To my mind, the problem is rather coming from the map which is really fantastic but quite huge as you said. I think that probably most campaigns and missions on this map will use only a small part of the map, the main part remaining completely unused. I wonder if this map could not be split in 2 or 3 smaller (and lighter) maps but this is beyond my skill!
Anyway, thanks again for your work.
