As far as the AI is concerned, there's a new bomber group (submission) that loads every 15 minutes. Most have a flight time of around 40-60 minutes, while others are only 10-15 minutes. As the hours go on, usually there's around 100-200 bombers in the air all the time. (minus the ghost planes lol) All the bombers will land back home, usually in a remote inland airfield.
But it's one big WIP. I wish I could find a way to have everything load from the main mission (AI spawns), but the trigger doesn't seem to work yet, or I simply don't know how to use it. I'm thinking, as a workaround, at least, if only 1 mission was loaded instead of submission after submission, it might be less error free.

Wow, that's just massive
I haven't flown online much, i just joined in today with a buddy and ended up with 3 sorties for a total of a bit more than 3 hours or so of flying
As part of my thanks for your hosting service, here's my initial assessment.
Server is smooth and stable most of the times.
I do get some kind of pauses every now and then which are not something i've ever seen offline. It's a few seconds during which the screen might freeze but control inputs are still accepted and when the screen unfreezes i am at the expected position.
It's just like the video pausing for 2-3 seconds while everything else goes on normally, then it resumes and instantly synchronizes with the rest of the game. I guess it has to do with with the amount of objects and missions you describe and most of the times it doesn't detract much from the fun as it's pretty infrequent.
I suspect loading of AI and static objects along with their containing segments of terrain loaded in batches when overflown, because i can clearly see my hard drive light go on when it happens.
I did get ghost contacts (disappearing dots) today, especially near the allied ships. I was flying a CAP between Folkestone and Dover and that's where it seemed to occur for the most part (not sure if it's visible elsewhere too), a couple of formations on each side of this route.
I still had a blast nevertheless
Thanks for hosting and good luck with ironing out any remaining issues.
