only the players flight is affected by rank.
So make sure no other flighs use the same desgnation as the player's

in older campaigns you may end up a a transport plane all of a sudden which was unplayable when the campaign was created bacause of this rule.

lowest rank, last plane bottom down, moves up when rank is higher.
this is why a lot of campaign makers say select highest rank. So they are sure they know where you end up. first plane, first group.

doesn't let you play a start of a campaign as wingman though this way...
