The equipment algorithm of PWCG does not allow me to easily ensure that there is a player flyable plane available.
The equipment request mechanism was put in place to solve the problem. You can drop an Me109 into an FW190 unit if you want. In reality, some German pilots actually did that.
PWCG offers the ability to replace any plane in your squadron with a different plane.
Campaign->Activity->Equipment Request
Choose a plane to be replaced and select the plane you want to convert it to. Now you have a plane of whatever type you want (limited by the plane actually existing at the time).
This was originally intended to allow players who found themselves in a unit with a plane they did not own to fly in that unit.
PWCG will not automatically assign this plane to your pilot , so you might (probably will) have to change planes when you generate a mission.
You can change as many planes as you want. There is a possibility of them being destroyed or even replaced, so you might have to pull them back in periodically.
