Eastern front is main focus of IL2-and thus logically pretty complete (And mostly fun, though early war is hard on Russian side and late war not easy as Germans.)
Pacific carrier ops is complete, if you don't want to go too late in the war. Later on a capable flyable torpedo/dive bomber is missing on both sides.
Med theather is pretty playable IMHO, too - if you are not too picky and can live with wrong Beau variant, replacing a few planes with similar ones(e .g. Baltimore repaced by a-20/B-25) a missing Hurri IId and a few others. And IMHO it still is the theatre that ages best, from the beginning almost up to the end of the invasion of Italy it is balanced on terms of individual performance, the Italian/German planeset just fits nearly perfectly to their Brit/American counterparts. Though maps for that theatre would not hurt, or are rather obviously missing.
