This is what happened in the mission following that of the He 115:
Intercept some 109s coming from the channel, you take off as usual, and then the leader keeps flying in circles forever around the airfield waiting for all the planes to gather in formation. We finally can go to intercept over the channel, when we are halfway, the 109s inexplicably turn back and return to their base. As the Hurricane is slower than the 109, there is nothing that can be done. My squadron follow the waypoints normally and nothing happens, then mission ends and you get a "battle failure" and I realize I wasted my time for the 3rd time flying to nowhere.
And sometimes you get out of the nothing something like "AI in 109 died". Its squadron was alone in the middle of the ocean.
