The very first scene of the movie has Bane himself being targeted by the CIA as the Leader of what we learn later is the League of Shadows. I understand that Talia using Bane as an active \\\"cover up\\\" leader would make sense to obscure her involvement as the \\\"true mastermind\\\" of the League.
However, when the plane goes down and Bane tells one of the League members to stay behind for the sake of leaving a body to cover their trail, why would they obey a mere dragon? Even one as intimidating as Bane? If Bane was such a fanatically devoted \\\"servant\\\" who had no personal investment in the evil plot except to serve Talia, why wouldnt he be the one who volunteers to sacrifice himself for the mission of Ras Al Ghul? Why would the man so happily volunteer to die in the place of someone who isnt their leader, but instead a fellow cog in the machine of \\\"Talias master plan\\\"?
It kind of ruins the idea that Banes sole motivation is staking his life for Talias wishes alone when a) its clear that him sacrificing his own life would help her cause by leaving behind an authentic corpse for the authorities to find and b) the henchmen would be just as expendable as Bane in that scenario. If Bane were just a henchmen of Talia, the man he tells to die in his own place wouldnt smile and proudly accept this. He would get indignant and say \\\"why does Talia think YOU are so special?\\\", and resist.
And seeing as how the man was clearly getting to leave the plane before it crashed when Bane stopped him, it would indicate that Banes word alone is enough to make him stay there and die, not as part of any \\\"premeditated plan\\\" on the part of anyone smarter than Bane.
