Should i class them on time or delay?
thanks for your attention
I used all my NF-X sailors as planesmen. Since you don't skimp on those, it's a better use of his impressive stats. In fact, I also left them as 2nd planesmen to boost repair and restore. It's still superior to an elite chief in air supply, but also has nearly 2900 base repair and restore (more if a nation with a boost there). The value there far exceeds that of any weight savings on other sailor types. In fact, it also stacks up fairly well against many repairers and restorers in overall stats there, and can be used as a decent replacement for those on other ships (like CVs)!
For sonarman, I advocate leaving him as 2nd all the way up. He'll cap either way, and repair and restore are far more valuable, especially at the lower tiers when the choice actually arises.
For torpedomen, it doesn't really matter. A +10 is more than adequate even if just left at 109 vets. The weight savings of higher stats useful but not that critical. If you really want them, a super elite with extra vets is fine.
For a BO, stats don't matter. You're going to skimp him horribly either way, so even if he had +20 everything, it still would barely affect your ship. Just roll a sailor and whatever you get is fine.
