v17.6 - Unable to redirect Chinook

I had a saved game where a terror attack was about to pop up in South America, so i launched my Chinook to a wav point nearby so i could arrive in the day light. But, when the terror attack popped up, i had issues trying to get my Chinook to redirect to the attack. I would click on the Chinook to redirect to the Terror attack point, but once i clicked the terror attack it would pop up to launch an available craft to the location. As my Chinook was already airborne, i cannot not click it to launch to the mission as you already know.

Thanks =)

Had this since about v 15 - if that helps the developers - i.e. must be an old bug.

Yup, I also have the same bug in Desura v.17.6

Yeah, this is a problem if you have interceptors escorting the chinook too. If they win a fight with something, then they (and the chinook) turn for home. Then you cannot get the chinook to re-direct to the terror mission again.

You should be able to break up a squadron mid-flight and reallocate the aircraft. Otherwise this kind of stuff will happen, and you won't be able to do a lot of things.
