At the risk of Departing From Civ1, doesn't that seem like an unreasonable
rule?  Why shouldn't a rifleman be able to attack, just because a bomber
happens to be passing by overhead?  Of course, the rifleman can't attack
the bomber, but he should be able to attack and destroy the grounds units
while ignoring the bomber.
