Another improvement to morale is to get your troops off the front lines and back to a "rear" area. Example: moving a Hudson group out of PM and back to Australia (e.g. Townsville or Brisbane) and then setting it's orders to "stand down" will get planes repaired and pilot morale back up.
Morale recovery and repairs seem to happen faster as the base level is improved (airbase level 1 would not repair/recover as fast as airbase level 9).
I always try to keep my fatigue below 20 for frontline combat units, which means a lot of cycling. If possible, I'd have 3 fighter squadrons at a base - rotating through CAP every couple of days.
I'd also set the CAP level to no more than 50 percent, this way half the squadron stays relatively fresh (keeping 3 squadrons at 30 percent CAP level is almost as good as one squadron at 100% CAP - and the morale/fatigue stays within acceptable limits for a longer period)
If you don't have that luxury (say you only have a single fighter group at an airbase), then you have to pick and choose when to fly, and when to rest.
Don't forget the value of a level 9 airbase when deciding where to rest your pilots. :)
