Newbie Problem with OOB

Hi

I am working through the Basic Training Air Operations tutorial and I have what I believe may be a bug using the Order of battle screen.
When I click on a unit on the Units by Group tab, the details of the unit only appear momentarily on the right hand side of the screen. Should they display until I click on another unit?

Thanks

Is this right at the start of the mission, with no aircraft airborne?

I think in that case it is cause the unit is still on the ground at NAS Fallon and not actually in the air, hence it is not really selectable. Once the unit is airborne it should work fine?

Yes, at the start. No units are flying.
I open the OOB window. Clicking on NAS Fallon (the top selection), opens up the Unit Status panel to the right of the map.
However, when I select, say, VA-105 Gunslingers..., a status panel flashes to the right of the map then disappears. This happens whichever unit I select at this point.

Exactly. And the reason is that no units are flying yet.

Once you tell some units to takeoff, they will work in the OOB viewer when you click them.
