Only way to get back control was to use the alt-F1 keys to "take control of AI plane".
So I guess only way to have a free roam external cam is to give your plane to the AI. Or am I missing something? Right now I'm using the external follow key, but want to move the camera around. I swear the controls are even more confusing than the original IL2. Way too much trial and error for this returning IL2 player.

hehe.. i never had that issue before.. I just hit the external view key (default is f2) and im in the external view with no AI controlling my plane. I fly only online though right now.. So im not sure what is happening to you.. I would go check your key bindings and see what take control of AI plane button is set to or something. Or maybe you are hitting "SHIFT f2" or "CTRL F2" and instead of viewing the external view of your plane your cycling threw Enemy planes or Friendly planes.
