Remove defaults
Was there any specifc reason we NEED to have the default groups/bombers/crew present? And is it possible to have them removed. For me, it would be a little easier to track what is going on between missions having a glance at a trimmed database.
I've toyed around with deleting them directly from the database, which ususally works.

Re: Remove defaults
I guess you hit upon a good solution. 
But the defaults are in to allow someone to play a quick game, using one of three major bomber models, without having to go through the somewhat more involved process of creating their own bomber and crew. Plus, if you fly enough missions, the database will become much bigger than it currently is. (Which isn't much more than a few dozen default records.) If I had put in a default for every single sub-type of bomber -- as I started to do -- then that would be too much. But I think three default groups, three default squadrons, thre default bombers, and a few dozen default airmen to man them, isn't excessive.
I may, in a future release, change the interface so that there is a spreadsheet for each object. (One for groups, one for squadrons, etc.) That way you would be able to see more than one thing at a time. But that won't be for quite some time ...
