The players plane is chosen according to the rank of the pilot in a campaign, and not what plane has the player box checked in FMB

So if the player selects the lowest rank at the beginning of the plane, he will be in the last plane in the squadron, regardless of what plane has been selected for use as the player plane in FMB. Similarly if the player selects the highest rank he will be in the first plane, regardless of choices made in FMB.

So when building a scripted campaign you should inform people what rank they should select in order to have the right plane in the campaign. This will take a bit of trial and error on the part of the campaign builder.

I think this may be the problem you are having
