A. Axis Player Turn
1) Axis logistics Phase
2) General logistics Phase (for Axis units only)
3) Allied Amphibious Phase (multiplayer Upload Point)
4) Allied Player PBEm Save Break Phase (PBEm only)
5) Axis Air Planning Phase
6) Axis Air Execution Phase
7) Axis Action Phase (ground movement and combat)
B. Allied Player Turn
8) Allied logistics Phase
9) General logistics Phase (for Allied units only)
10) (multiplayer Upload Point)
11) Allied Air Planning Phase
12) Allied Air Execution Phase
13) Allied Action Phase (ground movement and combat)

CONFUSED on this..... if "General logistics Phase " "has the same segments and sub-segments for each player."

Should it be
1) Axis logistics Phase (for Axis units only)
8) Allied logistics Phase (for Allied units only)

It might be, would certainly explain why units routed from ports cut off a turn earlier by naval interdiction, which wasn't that strong anymore after Axis air phase..

"Each player turn normally includes a player specific logistics phase with distinct segments followed by a general logistics phase that has the same segments and sub-segments for each player. "

I can interpret this 2 ways:

1- that turn phasing player gets 2 types of logistics phases.
2- that turn phasing player gets a separate logistics phase, then BOTH players get a general logistics phases.

example based on way 2-
1) Axis logistics Phase (for Axis units only)
2) General logistics Phase(phasing and non-phasing player)

8) Allied logistics Phase (for Allied units only)
9) General logistics Phase(phasing and non-phasing player)

I've always thought, probably wrongly that the non-phasing player had a small supply phase in the phasing players turn.
sort of like the airwar.

there are mini-supply phases during combat. You can be resupplied after being attacked.

Thanks, I got the manual on my tablet, so i can read it when no at the computer. I've been going over it front to back and back to front to remember "how the sausage is made"
