Being an AA player and KM for that matter, I'll say the odds of good CV drivers are
50/50.

Sometimes I get to eat idiots who don't know squat to change angles and leave their
planes in the open. Other times I get to see those who are skilled (or at least try) in so
far as doing 'the wave flight manuever' and manual 'carpet' dive bomber. While I hate
them, I appreciate their skill, especially those who actually take me more seriously than
even the BBs I escort with. That alone, should hint you what kind of opposition you face
here.

There are however, increasing rates of bomberwhores as of late so being fighter whore
might actually put you on the edge. I'll give you a heads up though; watchout for US
CVs of at least an Essex level with fighters.

The Japanese T4's seem fun to micro manage.

If you want to win games as well as having Fun then i suggest you train a DBW crew
because oneshotting BB3s and occasionally BB4s (and BB5s if you use 2 groups) is
much more fun than spamming fighters and have them drive circles around eachother.
However DONT be a TBW as they almost universally fail.

Also IJN fighters are supposedly quite bad while ijn DBs are the 2nd best

As with just about any ship in this game, skill will be the key to being sucessful. I've
seen plenty of people play with 20-30 level lower pilots and still be extremely sucessful.
In terms of shooting down planes may not get as many as the higher levels, but in terms
of winning games.
