Exactly! In our squadron we mostly fly coops. Sometimes it's really cool to have "crap" planes in a Mission. When? An example:

3 players are forced to fly "crap" planes with bombs. Their goal is to bomb an enemy Airbase, which is defended by enemy planes (KI) and AAA. The bombers only have a chance to get to this base, if other players support them. So the missionbuilder builds other player-flights as well:

- 4 players with planes that carry rockets - goal is AAA
- 6 players with agile fighters - goal is clearence of airspace over enemy base

This way the groups have to play as a team (ok teamspeak is a must for this) to fullfill the main goal - destroy the enemy airbase.

Btw: We have many pilots, who WANT to fly the crap planes, because it's a special challenge to fullfill the goal with limited capabilities.
