please help with jet bomber no-crash script

How do I write a line that determines when a plane gets closer than a certain distance from its target?

(i.e. I am writing a script that will cause the plane to dis-engage and "pull up" when it gets too close)

But...will that work with AI units? (I noticed it says "mytarget")

myTarget is the name of the target aircraft.. ypu know, what you put in the name field when creating the unit, and yes, it will work with AI.

I know the threads like a week old, just thought it should be answered
