Fleet commands - where and how?

[XenonSurf]

Hi,

Have played deeper in the game, own station in hostile territory, military vessel. I^m playing single player.
I accepted a CAP ship escort mission, and hired 2 pilots. But how do you command them?

I have found "Launch" and "Form with target" in the navigation map. Are these the fleet orders, and what do they achieve? The instructions are mute about this.

"Launch" activates the jump drive. "Form with Target" locks your flight path to that of the ship you have targeted. To control a fleet (or wingman), use the right-most option of the top HUD. If you cursor over the three rocket ship icons, it will say "Fleet Options" ... click on the icons to get the extensive drop-down menu.

Thanks, Marvin, I knew that there were fleet options, but couldn't remember
