Heya, former AF here though I only did flight planning. My question: what do the pilot and copilot do during gunning ops? Is there an autopilot program that controls the orbit of the plane, or do the pilots hand-fly it? Do they talk much on the intercom, like directing and providing feedback, or do they remain pretty quiet while you all do your thing? Do you have a mission commander in the back that is telling the pilots what to do next?
