This would give a much better control of the fight when u r leading. Another problem is the break and rejoin.... Maybe we could have a rejoin that would actually make the ai literally abandon whatever it is doing to get back to u and a break formation that would make it fend for himself. The unresponsive ai is the only thing that bothers me when playing offline ...

Even though they automatically form up on you after taking off, simply order the AI to rejoin after you take off anyway, and re-issue the order every ten or fifteen minutes or so (
the persistence of the player-issued command "times out" after a while). Also, particularly if you're flying bombers, issue the order again before crossing any waypoints approaching the target objective. They'll stay with you unless directly attacked or damaged, or ordered to do otherwise.
Very handy when flying bombing missions and you want your flight to stay in formation and drop their payload on command simultaneously.
