Post subject:  FRAME 3
Penalty plane set
<S>
Due to the Allied not flying 30-50% as Carrier ops Wildcat pilots (USN) in frame 1-2, they gained an unfair advantage in the air against the Axis. Instead of assigning penalty planes for all Allied pilots, their plane set for carrier ops will be modified for frame 3-4. Please read through the following plane set list carefully, so that all Allied squads know which planes they are allowed to fly for the coming frames. (The USN/USAAF prefixes have been changed to CARRIER OPS/LAND BASED for better clarification).


ALLIES
Special rules:
* The Allies must commit 30-50% of their pilots to fly as CARRIER OPS each frame. The CARRIER OPS pilots must operate from CV's, using only CARRIER OPS assigned airplanes. Individual CARRIER OPS pilots can emergency refuel at airfields but squads should operate from their CV's, as long as they haven't been sunk.
* 50-70% of the Allied pilots must fly as LAND BASED, operating from airfields with LAND BASED assigned airplanes. If emergency landing on a CV, the pilot loses that LAND BASED fighter for the frame, but not his life and can fly an SBD-5 or TBF-1 from that CV instead. He can fly to an airfield and change plane, but the SBD or TBF is now part of his inventory instead of the lost plane.
* Blacksheep squadron VMA-214: The Allies can choose up to 12 pilots per frame from the LAND BASED pilots to fly as Gregory "Pappy" Boyington's Blacksheep squadron. These pilots must operate from their assigned base for as long as it's not closed. Individual pilots of VMA-214 may only rearm at other fields or CV's when in an emergency, like leaking oil or fuel. The rest of the LAND BASED pilots, not chosen for the VMA-214, fly their normal rides as per the LAND BASED list below.
