As a small expansion to this request, as in the above scenario if No 1 lands then No 2 becomes leader but cannot issue orders for 3 and 4 to "return to base".
Likewise, if the leader is shot down during a mission, then the next numbered a/c becomes the new leader but can't issue any orders.
Is there any way TD could come up with a fix for that ?
In a flight of four, you can guess, that in most cases every second is a noob, while the other two are somewhat experienced.

(#1) 1st Wingleader - (#2) Wingman 1
(#3) 2nd Wingleader - (#4) Wingman 2

So instead of #2, the pilot who should become responsible for the flight, should be #3 instead.

At least, thats what it would be like on german swarms - I'm not sure how it was at other nations. However, if it was different, then the whole issue would become more complicated.
But I agree, its odd, like it is now. Not having any control or any influence on the behaviour of the other pilots in a flight is unrealistic.

Aboput your other points I do not have a clue, I guess, somebody of our team should know better.
