I'm not a fan of undersized maps, either. However, if you want to reenact a strategic bombing campaign - and the IL-2 fans have been trying to do that since I remember - the 'tactical size' maps are just too small.
On th MWoI map I linked above you can, for example, fly a campaign for the P-38s of the U.S. 15th Air Force, which were taking off from Algeria and escorting heavy bombers all the way to northern Italy, Yugoslavia or Greece. For some it could be boring (you can always use time compression to speed things up on the way to target), but to experience the mounting tension of such long-range missions is priceless. As fighter pilots used to say: "Hours of boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror"
