That would give much better opportunity to react appropriately.

This is the thing.
Maybe the bombers shouldn't airstart, but rather start on the ground. Is that an issue with the mission builder?
I agree, getting off the ground quickly is very important. However, when you spawn all over the g'damn airfield with multiple squadrons, getting sorted out isn't a matter of 'JUST GO GO GO!'. Even if we'd been clockwork in it, we still wouldn't have had the last squadron in the air until 15 to 20 minutes in.
I'm going to recommend we have each squadron taking off from its own airfield to eliminate a bit of the 'I'm to your left...past the 501 guy... no let him go first...who's that spitfire? get moving, will ya?' etc.
