A more simple (and feasible) solution would be an 'RTB' command combined with an "Ignore Waypoints' command. Then the AI could head directly for the pre-defined home base coordinates. In addition, the AI could even check whether there are other friendly airfields in the vicinity (I mean the take-off coordinates for other friendly flights). Remember, the AI can only be aware of locations which are pre-defined by the mission designer. If the mission designer decides to leave a 'physical' airfield to remain inactive, then it would be strange if the AI could land on it. Similarly, if the mission designer created a new airfield (not on the physical map), then it would be strange if the AI ignored it.
