Status: offline 		No, those are the possible commanders. The ones with the * are pilots - but not necessarily of the type of plane that the group has. (Fighter, bomber, et cetera.) So WO Saito would be an excellent training leader.

Nope. He was a combat leader. High aggression but low air skill.

Status: offline 		Sorry, but I'm telling you, he's the actual commander, the only way you can see who it is is to pretend you're going to replace him. I have several flying commanders like that who I picked and they arrived and were activated, but it still shows "staff officer" in charge. When I get a chance I'll find one.

Yes, that's the list of possible commanders I could pick from. Look at who it says at the top is the current commander.
