Less ocean traffic & aircraft in GW

From what I understand, the GW mod corrects the ocean and aircraft traffic to more historically accurate numbers. Is this true, since it seems there's significantly less contacts since installing the mod?

I liked the more frequent contacts in the stock game, even if it was inaccurate, or is this my imagination? (Yes, I'm following the shipping routes on the map)

No there are probably more ships out there at the right times but that doesnt mean to say you will be shown them all on the map
The shipping routes arent set in stone either - they are there for a guide other wise you may as well sit in one place and wait for them to sail to you
Get out there and hunt Fraulein

I haven't noticed any changes to the shipping, but since installing GW, I've NEVER seen or been attacked by an enemy aircraft. Only seen friendlies when leaving port, and once had a squadron of stukas attack a lonely small merchant I was stalking.

*nod* Before GW I used to always get attacked by aircraft shortly after leaving port. The one time I got attacked after installing GW was by one twin-engine something. I know I hit it several times with the flak gun, but there was no apparent damage. Whereas, pre-GW they'd be trailing smoke or even crash.

Yes thats because stock aircraft would have crashed if you'd have thrown Bernard at them
Now they are tougher and the gun no longer blasts them out of the sky
