Now ^this^ is an excellent idea and a way of mitigating power. While most are against the addition of special rules, this is a very worth while rule that I would totally back :)

^this^ - I'm with Ginger. This would be one of very few additions/amendments to the core rules that I would support.

sounds like a good idea to me, how would we select which weapons to retrospectively apply it to on existing aircraft?

Well.. Give me to the weekend and I'll do up the whole bunch of AC into a single Pdf for review /heated debate.

Most existing AC would get it.

While I'm at it ill have a look at the rebalance often discussed.

Yes, seems to be a worthy discussion.

But...aren't guns with an AA stat on an air craft already the ones that were decided as the ones to use in air to air combat?

sorry, poor choice of "special rule name". So it is an add on to weapons with an AA stat. When those AA weapons are used in an intercept action, they receive +1 to hit. So its selective rather than every AA weapon on the AC by default.
