Thanks, Atas.

I do agree with separate bomber spawn points. However I put singe engine planes on the airfield and two of them explode in the single engine hangar. I tried to put a static plane in one of these hangars to see if they fit and they do. So my suspicion is that they collide with the concrete floor of the hangar.

I also think that if for some reason the flight leader dies provision should be taken that the next follow up in ranks takes over and pursues the mission.

BTW I tried different options instead and together with the spawn parked. Including scramble take-off (except idle). The result is that they spawn somewhere in the sea ...
