Makes it easier if Map Icons are on, but then again, its training isn't it? small price to pay, when you train navigation, force them to spawn and find each other.

Groups can be created with up to 40 aircraft I believe, so training sessions could go longer with less hiccups than before. More focus on the actual task, vs the setup.
you could fill each airfield with 30 planes and as long as you set them to spawn PARKED and IDLE they will not move and you can just keeping jumping in a new one till you run out...not bad for group practice .

@furbs

sorry m8 there is no "classic" CO-OP you can however get online create a lobby called "CO-OP HERE" or what ever you fancy, people will join you explain the COOP tell them what base you will take off from and what positions you wish them to take, tell them the name of your server and remind them that when they join they will see nothing till you START the mission.

if you have AI on your side and you are doing a ground start make sure they spawn PARKED and let them take off firt or they will run into you.

i know its a PITA but i guess it is better than nothing

S!
