Is it worth it in terms of air attrition?

Most games have house rule of only being able to bomb an airbase once per turn. I usually don't bother normally as I have better uses for the LW.

That said, the rules on effectiveness have changed many times over the years so I may be out of date.

I bomb the first turn & then dont worry about it. If your opposition is any good, he is going to try & cripple your airforce & then bomb the crap out of your infantry, so cant waste fighters escorting when needed to knock down the bombers.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.
