Status: offline 		I don’t think so. I’ve had fires of 40+ raging on my CVs and never lost a plane. I’m glad to see that planes are finally being destroyed by air strikes on airfields now in the 2.30 patch. I don’t ever remember destroying a plane on the ground pre-2.30 except by capturing the base or an occasional ship bombardment.

I had seen planes destroyed on 100 ft. sweeps before 2.30 but only occasionally by bombs - you had to drop a lot of bombs to damage/destroy aircraft on the ground. Those raids of 70+ B-17s wiped out a number of aircraft at my bases pre 2.30.:mad: :D

I'm like Sonny and have seen pre 2.3 aircraft losses from bombing/strafing land bases but I don't ever recall any aircraft losses on board ships (other than sinkings).

I would think there could be potential situations for a large loss of aircraft on board ships.

I wonder in ship to ship combat if any float planes are ever damaged or destroyed?

Status: offline 		I'm here to tell you one can lose planes at airfields by air bombardment at altitude in pre 2.30...but they have to be big raids. I have a feeling that the losses mount as the morale of stranded air groups go down. In addition, air groups grounded by base damage frequently are damaged in air raids.
