group 2 is good to go at any time, 1 has enough but would prefer at least 1 pilot, same for 3.
Well in the X-Wing novels I believe it is broken down like this:
Flight=4 fighters (two pairs of wingmates)
Squadron=12 fighters (three flights)
Wing=72 fighters (six squadrons)
I could be confused, but I've read those novels like three or four times each so I think that's right.
