You can do lotta such "cheating" in SP engine... But you can avoid just by not using it and having an agreement with your PBEM opponent he will neither. I have so far yet to meet someone (me included) who uses air strikes in such a manner.
The problem with this cheat is that you may not know your opponent is doing it. So no agreement is possible. The artillery "cheat" also has the side effect of making "walking barrages" twice as fast as they would be normally and a lot less dangerous for those following.

How many times was such technique used against you?

Is that a trick question? As recon overflights dont appear in playback unless somebody shoots at the plane obviously its not possible to know if it has been used against me.
It would probably be best if plane weapons couldnt be turned off.
