Speaking only for myself, air stands would be a negative unless absolutely necessary. The only official figure to use an air stand is the Silver Surfer, for obvious reasons, and the only C3V/SoV unit to use them is the Deathwings, for equally obvious reasons. This isn't just an aesthetic preference, either - there are gameplay implications for figures on stands (can't hide behind ruins/battlements, are more easily targeted by ranged attacks in general, take up an inordinate amount of space on ladders, etc...) that other flying figures do not create.
