My bad man, to solve the problem with the helicopter returning to base as it is in the vanilla (original JA2) game. Look at the Strategic Gameplay Settings section of the INI.Editor. The option you need is second from the bottom : ALTERNATIVE_HELICOPTER_FUEL_SYSTEM. Set it to False and Skyrider will go through his vanilla routine, complain about burning fuel and then saying "Can't hang out any longer Cap....etc" and he returns to base automatically.
This option and the option under Financial Settings : HELICOPTER_RETURN_TO_BASE_IS_NOT_FREE, are the 2 valid options. Set both to False to make the heli return to base automatically and free of charge. You may have found it out by now, it took me a while to realise what these 2 options do, as they are in different sections of the INI.Editor.
Beyond that, you can do Silversurfer's way to land the heli and make it wait or any way you like better. I prefer the vanilla way as i am used to it. Apologies if i caused you confusion.I am setting up a new game and while going through the INI.Editor, i stumbled on the second option so i made this post, i hope it's not too late.
