There's no reason a patch that prevents half of one side's aircraft from starting engines for 9-15 minutes should have ever reached beta status let alone Release Candidate status.
regretfully i think i have to agree with you (subject to my bold edits being added)

letting some of these glaring errors into the patch shows those elements simply have not been tested in-house

the good news however is that there are many important fixes in that latest RC patch as well, which have had extensive work and effort (and testing). for ex, overall improvements in the new gfx engine etc... (see other posts listing them). very frustrating however to have these red side plane startup issues
