The Avalon seems to be the first flying creation of its size, or maybe its just based on that technology. But they do have planes, small ones, like the carriers we see lifting off in episode 24. You may be right, since the circumstances of the jet engine in our history may not have been met in the alternate.
Mechas are weak to air attacks. They are large, moving targets for aircraft. Given that they can move at decent speeds they would still be easy prey for a jet fighter... Unless they were the Lancelot. I doubt bombers would work though, just based on the way KMF's are used. Bombers are slow, easy targets and KMF's should have enough speed to 'run away' from a bomber.
You can see the KMF's moving at very fast speed during some encounters. If we sat down and guessed the size of a building in the background and timed how long it took to pass the building, we could find the speed of a KMF... but that's way to much effort.

well a bomber filled with nukes with 80KM yeild then lancelot is 10000% dead unless he uses his hax
Avalon was flying using the float system without any jet and other types of engine. Using the float system made it capable of staying still in mid air
