You set the air entry and exit hexes, then subsequent flights plotted will all use what is currently set.

So simply re-plot the directions between plotting the various flights.

Set direction A
plot flight 1,2
Set direction B
plot flight 3
set direction C
plot flight 4

flight 1 and 2 will come in using direction A, 3 on direction B, and 4 on direction C.

It's not exactly rocket science.

That just worked perfectly for me. I did what I described above, and the planes all used the plotted routes.

Are you planning AI air strikes in a scenario? - the AI only uses the target marker, it often ignores the scenario designer's directions input and plots it own.

Try using all the aircraft seperate. Like Say you have bought 3 air strikes, use the three of them at different times during the game. Setting different settings for each set of planes.
Unless your trying for Shock and Awe or something it works good.

When you go to the Artillery/Aircraft plotting screen hit the button labeled "Hidden".
This will open a mini map on that screen that allows you to (usually) set the approach and exit vectors for aircraft.
Then of course select your target hex as usual.
