The previous post is valid, BUT... before you do anything else, check out the text field for the Restriction type - if it's 'unclickable', then this Group can never be redeemed or bought out with PP. I regard these as Training Squadrons, pure & simple. I don't upgrade them, I just stuff them with rookies and let 'em train. Then, in the Pilot Data tab, you can see buttons for "Release X Pilots" - especially those with the most Experience. Release these guys and you can have some 'trained' pilots for your front-line Groups. At least that's what I see and suppose - seems logical & reasonable. In short, if the Restricted HQ field is clickable, you can change it, eventually, and manage them how you want. If it's unclickable, though, why improve their sleds? All they need to do is fly, they don't need the Latest. ******** ADDENDUM We've had some discussion lately of Withdraw/Disband. I think the UI is pretty good on this and straightforward with the messages displayed. There is one thing you can do, to save Pilots when Disbanding an Air Group: go to the Pilot tab and Release as many Pilots as you can to Reserve (not Group Reserve). Then trash the planes.
