Seems fairly reasonable I think, especially if you consider about half of those aircraft to be not flight-worthy due to some small technical problem or damage they can't fix with the available resources.
Allows just enough for a Corps commander to call upon if they really, reeeeeeaaaaaaallllllllllly need their arses pulled out of the fire, and they're willing to sell their soul, plus those of their entire Corps HQ.
...and all their first born sons too.
