I must say that when I play (OZ time) I only see about 12 to at best 30 players at a time. Players tend to be drawn to the coast and then to the air fields looking for action and it happens on both sides of the channel. Blue do have an advantage in warm up times so they can reach the coast quicker. Maybe that gives the impression that blue are the worst culprits. Shorter warm up times mite help ac to meet some were in the middle.
The thing is when flying red the longer warm up time leaves you vulnerable to EA attack. I would have thought in the real world the ground crew would have kept the AC's close to operating temperature other wise their precious fighters would be sitting ducks. Another thing I miss from il2 is the old fashion air raid siren. I have taken off and not realized an ea was near but with the air raid siren there is no mistake.
