Under an air group losses there is an abreviation listed as WOFF, what does this stand for?

Thanks, but what does write off mean? Too damaged to be worth repairing?

To clarify what the Terminus Award winner means

...

From page 168 in the manual:

quote:

Write offs are a new type of Ops loss for A/C. A write off may occur when a machine returns with too much damage to repair. Pilot survival rates are higher for write offs than Ops losses. It is assumed that the plane is cannibalized for parts, and thus after 5 write offs an extra plane is considered repaired and becomes available.

I have been inputting my orders for the campaign game first turn since July 4, 2009. I'm getting close. In another month or two, I might be able to run the turn!
