I propose a game where the ground combat would be handled as a strategy game like in MoW while the Air combat would be handled as a simulator like IL-2.
That means that in a 4v4 battle 4 (2 on each side) player would face each other on the ground as strategy game players (and no command bunkers with a FPS char inside real strategy without physical form of the commander) while the other 4 players would lead squads in the air (or just fly a single plane if they like that better) and fight over air superiority so they (or the bombers belonging to their side) can influence the war on the ground since that is after all where the map will be won in the end.

Lost me there
Theatre of war 2 comes close to what you ask for.
Consider the scale of map you would have to play on.
4x4 players fighting it out might be fun, but what is in it for the flight sim guys. They are shooting at ai basically on the ground control by a player.
You would click point at location X and your troops using ai path-finding will try and get there.
What the flight sim pilot would see as a real living breathing world you would be seeing as an RTS game from a look down perspective.
Battlefield 1943 at least puts both players in the action.
Honestly this is definately a case of two genres that do not work well together.
My 2 cents
