The Wingmen (and WingWomen)
available to hire is random every time you land. Mostly they're good for
drawing fire. They won't really attack anything unless you tell them to
"Attack my target" or they themselves get attacked. Many times
they'll bail in the middle of a really tough fight.
Once you've hired one, they'll be with you until you land. If you change your
mind and cancel the deal before you take off, you only get half your credits back.
Generally, the more expensive a Wingman is, the more skilled.

If you're dealing in
Commodoties, eventually you're going to need something more than the default
ship. Head to the Bulletin Board and hire one of these bad boys. The ones with
turrets also make pretty decent wingmen.
They follow you wherever you go, and can usually take care of themselves. Thus
they don't require as much attention as an escort ship.
