What does it mean in game terms, if anything, when you see aircraft flying around with no mission status or objective attached to them? For example, I have been waiting for missions to be assigned in my Lebanon campaign, but they are slow in coming - fuel and ammo are in short supply at many bases and FARPs. However, over at FARP 6 (which coincidentally or not, had 99% fuel but only 10% ammo, I think) there appeared to be some sort of helicopter rodeo going on - numerous choppers with no assigned missions, including several Ka-52s (which I could not assume control of), just orbiting the FARP.

Does this mean anything or is it a bug (or both)? Again, the info bar at the bottom of the screen gives the callsign and vehicle type, but nothing else. Same with the display in the campaign interface - list of aircraft going by the callsign and their home base, but no mission objective or status. Thanks for any insights!
