Some more info on the AI carrier. I'm not too familiar with the hitlist, but I believe this is where objects get their solidity. A moving object would have to interact with the hitlist on every frame, which might be too expensive. Again, I'm not really sure. As far as the wind/turbulence effects go, these are possible. As an example see the FGAIThermal class which models a thermal. It modifies the value of wind-from-down when the "user" aircraft is within the thermal's radius, creating a "rising column" of air. Similar things can be done to the AI tanker, causing downwash behind it. A burble of air behind the ship can also be done like this. Causing a ship to bob up and down can be modeled by adding a periodic altitude adjustment to the ship's location. That's the easy part.
