Status: offline 		AV Tangier will not allow seaplanes from the airfield at LA to rebase to the ship in LA harbor. Early in a new game and for some reason Os2u-3 Kingfishers or Seagulls can't rebase on the ship. HQ's are the same and not restricted and I've tried both mission options for the TF. Any ideas?

If it's disbanded at the port I don't think the game allows you to transfer planes.

Edit: And make sure it's not loading supplies or aircraft in its cargo hold, that may also affect it.

It can be done.

The ship can handle 24 planes, the air units are located on the airfield at Los Angeles. Both are huge. Port 7, Airfield 10, Air support 123+24, Air support needed 72

Status: offline 		The AV support for the Tangier is 24, meaning it supports 24 aircraft operating out of a port, but it can't carry any. The amount that can actually be based on it (Aircraft Capacity) is 0.

It can support 24 seaplanes in base, but cannot carry any.
