We'll sign on, rally up and bring the fight to whatever large pirate/terrorist force or military invasion happens to be on at the time. Or if not, bring the fight to them in either a LAF operation or supporting allies.
How do you intend to discover these large engagements if you're not out on patrol in the first place?
Wait for the Liberty Emergency chat to bump saying "RNC in Texas launch all ships"?
It's not that easy to tell if there is a large pirate force active, particularly if they are untagged/indies and the Emergency chat has not identified them.
Personally, I think you should elaborate on this point a bit more.

I'm not against the idea of some kind of elite fighter group. I can even deal with the idea of a bunch of pilots too snobby to help out on the home front. But the name has got to go. It doesn't make any sense at all in the Freelancer world.
I agree with this post. There is nothing conceptually wrong with the way you intend to operate this faction. A group of fighters based out of a carrier is actually pretty decent RP - the Missouri can only hold so many. However, the name of the group is really a source of great conflict, and many players have demonstrated that they find it inappropriate for the Freelancer environment.
