That's what I meant with my question, what should those fighter flights that are "escorting" other fighters do. Problem is,as I see it, that there is no "correct" behavior in these situations. I can find WWII examples for just about anything mentioned in this thread, from fighters flying perfect formation to flights weaving all across the sky while giving the cover to other flights.
