If I might weigh in here, the idea on the surface seems fine except that air units have a very limited amount of ammo to begin with and if I have an idle fighter or bomber I want very tight control over it's use. Plus, air units can make a handy spotter in a pinch and I might not want that capability to go away. Basically, I'd rather have it and not need it then to lose it just a turn before it would become useful.
