I'd like some clarification on something - from what I saw today, only the original gang leader can create a fleet from a gang, and in turn assign wing and squad commanders. Now this is understandable from a command and control point, and worked well enough...until our FC got primaried and taken out.
With them out of the picture, no wing commanders were able to apparently promote themselves to FC, or squad commands to open WC positions - the only way to effectively re-establish someone as FC, and therefore be able to call targets and gang warp is to disband and regang everyone.
Did someone kind of forget to build-in a chain of command option? Say, 1st Wing Commander gets auto-promoted to FC should they be pwned in the midst of battle, and the 2nd wing commander after that, while squad leaders take their positions? If you're going to put so much emphasis on making an elaborate gang system, you need to make it flexible and able to handle situation like this.

I seem to remember talk of being able to "claim" a higher position, if you had the skills. Heres hoping it wasn't forgotten. -----------------------------------------------

you can make somebody in your fleet a boss, it's sort of an admin, he can move/invite/kick people and make gang members leaders of any level, he can be a basic squad member

Having a FC, WC, and SC all be able to assign themselves a second in command. When the FC vanishes, his second in command takes over. If that 2nd is a WC, then the WC's second becomes WC, if the WC's second is a SC, they move up and so on.
Then the new leaders can pick seconds, or it can simply use a list of some sort, or hell, just randomly promote people who have the nessicary skills.

I guess thats a lesson worth learning, there- always have your gang formed by the not-FC, preferably the person on the single stable-est system that you know -----------------------------------------------
