UAVs like Greyhawk must be teached how to take off from Feres airstrip
Assigned, WishlistPublic

Description

Tested with editor empty map, one rifleman and one GreyHawk GBU.

I connect terminal to UAV then set a move waypoint away from the airport so to make the UAV take off.

The UAV runs around a bit then when it is on the takeoff strip instead of following it, it goes into the forest.

Additional Information

During these tests I found out that if I give UAV waypoint with LAND type it switches landing autopilot ON and this has the effect that even if I put the waypoint on the Feres airfield the UAV lands on Almyra airfield then takes off again from there.
