I like the concept, but I would suggest simplifying it. The "air head"
supply would function like an AMPH beachhead supply. Very limited range (not
many trucks or gas is going to be supplied by air) and somewhat limited
capabilities (no air zones traced from it). You spend one ATP per turn to
supply with attrition and cycling like that of an air drop or glider
operation.
This would be reusing existing code (or code that should exist) for the most
part. While it might allow for a limited support of the hex, it isn't going
to support a large pocket, and the cost to maintain is going to be large. It
would allow for a Stalingrad pocket to survive a bit longer than otherwise,
but at a pretty horrible cost of ATP and thus production points.
As always with these sorts of changes, it would be an option so people who
don't want to "taint" the CWIE don't have to.
