With all the planes you have bought or made you must have ones that would work for an extended campaign time frame, some time in 1916. I would expect that even if the decision was to extend this one it would still be seen as a new start for new players. of course you are having a good time with the more advanced planes so may not want to go back in time.
Regarding time frame and introduction of new plane types, the Germans suffered a dearth of new models until later 16. A quick and unconfirmed check looks something like this.
Introduction Date 1916
April - Sopwith 1 1/2 Strutter RNAS
May - Nieuport 16 RFC
June - Fokker EIV
July - FE2d RFC, Nieuport 17 RFC, Halberstadt DII
Aug - Fokker DII, Halberstadt DIII
Sept - Albatros DI
Oct - Spad VII RFC, Albatros DII, Sopwith Pup RNAS
Nov RE8
Dec Albatros DIII, Sopwith Triplane
the French get the Nieuports and Spads earlier, so it looks like us British types will move to the RNAS.
As I said this was just a quick research into intro dates and may need amendment.
