Apologies if this has been answered before.

previous statements by oleg on this indicate bomb damaged airfields (specifically runways, and their integrity) will get gradually rebuilt by AI (either by visible or invisible ground crews and equipment)
iirc oleg also stated that depending on degree of damage, this could be quick or slow (taking hrs or days)
keep in mind historically runways were repaired fairly quickly by ground crews, even if the surrounding buildings took often much longer to reconstruct. but with the sustained german attacks on many southern english bases during the initial BoB, several of those airfields were in the end barely functional, i have no idea to what degree oleg will represent this fine ballance (which is quiet important, because had the germans not switched to attacking london, many of those southern airfields would have been dysfunctional and it could have tipped the balance into the germans favor for dominating the skies in the south)
