There seems to be a flaw in the avatar cycle... When an Avatar dies, the next one is born, right? But, it'll be 16 years before the next Avatar is revealed (traditionally), then add on the extra years needed to master each element, unlock the 7th chakra, and hence the Avatar State, there could be a gap of 16-20+ years where there ISN'T a fully realised Avatar, and the world will fall out of balance in those years... In Aang's case it was even worse, he disappeared for 100 years.
