AI just like real AH pilots

[Anaxogoras]

I'm amazed at how accurately HTC has modeled the behavior of real AH pilots into the offline AI pilots.  Specifically...

1. Flat-turning or even split-s'ing the merge.
2. Ho'ing no matter the odds
3. Total ignorance about how to drag a bandit
4. A preference for dumping lots of altitude for low bandits when higher bandits are present.
5. No 6 calls for friendlies.
6. Target fixation.
7. Disdain for escorting bombers
8. Bailing out with superficial damage.

*SIGH*

Such a pessimist....

Yeah, yeah, Ok, I admit it.  The offline missions I've downloaded here are pretty cool.  The best ones so far are Milk Run, and Last Flight of Admiral what's his name.  If only I could get the AI to protect their friendly bombers....
