Is there any kind of penalty if you base air groups from RAF on an air base commanded by the US Air Force or vice versa? What if the air base is under different command than the air groups based there?

no, on release there was a hit on repairs etc but that got removed.

the only reason to keep a 1-1 relationship is it makes things a bit easier when you are doing large scale redeployments. This tends to happen with the tac air commands as the front in France moves and its easier if you click on an airbase that notionally belongs to say 9 US Air and it highlights all the airbases that belong (& that is where you have 9 US air deployed).

In effect, if you have a busy sector, I personally would try to keep 1:1 relationships, on a quieter sector doesn't really matter. Same with the Strat Air in the UK, even late war the only things worth moving to the Continent are the British Halifaxes, everything else can carry on bombing from the UK

To reset an airbase's nationality from UK to US or vice versa:

1. Set airbase TOE to Auto
2. Set airbase AHQ to the nationality you want
3. Leave airbase empty for one turn

Now I have a better grip on it. A relief that is isn't something that needs a lot of attention and can mess things up large scale. I get the idea that long range bombers don't need to relocate, but will longer missions not incur a larger morale and fatigue on its crew? Are long range missions more prone to cause operational losses? Long range missions will use up more fuel, but maybe aviation fuel is not an issue for the allies overall?

Longer range missions do cause more morale loss and also air losses.

Fuel becomes an issue for the Allies when they invade Northern Europe and don't have large, repaired ports.
