It's too bad there isn't an option for air groups similar to that of wet task forces, where you can assign them to "Safe" as in only with escort, "Normal" as in with or without escort, and "Direct" as in you WILL fly to the target no matter what.
The only solace is that the lack of control in regards to deploying air groups cuts both ways.
Great idea and a good point

Bottom line...it's not good to set target for Escort unless attacking a base...if even then. Escorts get fixated to base (since they are set to it) and will most likely not escort it target is TF (might happen with ground units too). I agree with LoBaron with this. Only use target for Escorts if attacking fixed installations.
I will never use a set target again, when needing naval escort [:D]
