A0 as Aircraft

It seems to be doing Ok so far in my play testing (I do not move it during the battle) but is there a hidden code handling problem that could cause problems?

You may consider an alternate solution similar to what I proposed in the Delayed Bombardment thread. I am uncomfortable making the A0 unit off-map or exposing it unnecessarily.

In this case, I suggest making a AbC3 unit a company then cross-attach FA units.

Further, you may not want to make a vehicle as a company leader, in that case insert a FWD Obs in the aircraft, make the FO a company and cross-attach FA units and the aircraft to the FO.
