• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

New Discovery...maybe

Hope I'm not wasting anyone's time with this but...

In a mission in which you return to base via "Primary" route your last waypoint is actually 5 miles out from base and when reached, your wingmen will peel off at 7 second intervals and land in reverse order. However, if you return via "Alt" route your last waypoint is the base itself and your wingmen will continue to follow you until you land then fly around aimlessly. I just discovered that in the latter situation if you land, stop and then hit "Wingmen Rejoin" your wingmen will fly out, turn and land.

Again, this is a new discovery for me and I hope I'm not just repeating something everyone already knows.
 
Yep. Also sometimes when you land at the end of a mission one or more wing men will go around but not come in to land. If you command them to rejoin they will enter the pattern and land.
