I can get ACF quite a number of times in a row, but they only account for about 30% of my sorties. There are compositions to guarantee south and north nodes, but I don't think one exists for mid exclusively (otherwise it would've made headline news already). Mid is probably 50/50 with a fleet that can go both north and mid.

As for the LoS, F -> H? Sure you don't mean F -> G? I'm not going to calculate effective LoS here, but I had an equipment LoS of 49-50 (check my setup above) and I have gone from F -> G once. I think it might be RNG, cause it happened 1/10 times that I made it past node F (and I don't think it's cause of losing LoS planes either, not using Zuiuns). My theory about routing from F:

<100 Effective LOS: go to G

100 < Effective LOS < undetermined value: go to H

undetermined value < Effective LOS: go to J Wait, let me get this straight. You went from node F to H with an effective LoS of 120? Are you sure?

I ask cause a) my effective LoS was lower and I've never been sent from F to H and b) I don't see anyone else complaining about a yasen AND an ACP fight in their sorties. It's either or with these fleet compositions. It's like the link between the J and H nodes in E-4. It's there, but I don't think anyone (at least from what I remember reading) actually went that route.

Also you might want to check your LoS calculations. Someone mentioned in the comments that offensive planes don't count as part of plane recon LoS. Therefore they get square-rooted rather than get multipled by 2, so you might actually be under the threshold.
