Even if it's costly, send your planes again. You can afford to lose pilots and airplanes - he can't. At least, not the pilots. The goal is not so much to sink ships anymore, but to shoot his Zeroes down.
Well after 1 turn regrouping I gathered anything that could fly, pity the same ships were attacked, multiple times so only really hit about 10 different ships.
Wondering now wether its worth sending a few warships out hunting some loaded transports. Weather is Rain but was hoping to for Thunderstorms due to Jap LB aircraft being able to hit my Ships. Is it worth the sacrifice? My ships would have to sortie 2-3 hexes from Akyab:
