apd1004 -> Question about Air Recon display (1/2/2018 3:01:51 PM)

Just picked up WitW/Torch in a Steam bundle sale for $35 US, so I'm just getting into the game for the first time even though it has been out for a couple years. Pardon my newbieness.

Can't find any mention of it in the manual/living manual or even on the forum for that matter, but my question is about the colored bars at the airbases displayed with the first press of the shift-t hotkey. This is the opening of the 43-45 campaign, with full FoW as the allied player. The only references I find in the manual is that the colored bars would indicate ready/damaged/reserve A/C, but here it appears that the bars represent fighters/bombers/auxiliaries.

Can anyone shed some light to what the bars represent?

Thanks

Well, to answer my own question - after further scouring of the included documentation, it turns out my guess was correct in that the colored Data Bars for enemy bases do in fact represent green=fighters, red=bombers, and blue=auxiliaries. I found the answer in box #3 of One Page Guide #4b. Now I just wish I could get back the 3 hours or so of my life spent trying to figure that out.

Detailed info could be found on the map popup display.

When FOW on this data is based on last recon flight, i.e. it can be high inaccurate.
