Auto Formation for Fighters

[Ruah]

I just eject when/if I have to go AFK as long as no cons are near me.   
Takes me streight back to the tower and I can reup when its time to rumble.

Years ago my wife not understanding anything about Aces High would demand I drop everything and pay attention to her when she entered the house from the end of her work day. Many arguments ensuied especially when I finally was in danger of having to leave a very expensive 262 on autopilot. The next day I changed over to my speakers for sound instead of my head set. Knowing when the wife usualy got home I had several squad members agree to help me.

Wife walks into the PC room.
Speakers up full.
I'm in formation and say wife over the mic.
Everyone breaks, flys in circles screaming on VOX about being killed.
I fly away on autopilot with them all screaming: your wife just killed us again.

Now days the wife likes knowing I'm home playing Aces High instead of hanging out at a bar......

but it's also unrealistic to be sleeping in a combat aircraft droning into enemy territory.

I heard stories of the F6F and P-51 pilots in the pacific theater fly 2-3ft away from their wingman in order to be doing something and not fall asleep, during thous long mission. I think there is a reason no one heard stories of pilot actually falling asleep...

AFK = A Free Kill

I've flown to 45k clear across a map AFK before.  I think I came back and even killed someone who was AFK waaay behind their own lines.

 

If you're dying, you must not be doing it right.

If your wingman is AFK they become the lead and you follow them.
