Like I said in US PTR thread, FLAK was never this effective against small aircraft. Since the game does not account for 3 dimensional play (as soon as I start an attack run the flak appears at the lower level) when it comes to aircraft You need a better system of missing with FLAK. Maybe a die roll (out of 100) of 5 or less the round actually goes into the right location of the aimed area. If you spec into AA build it increases to die roll 15 or less.
Again CV's can't compete against higher TIER ships. You go near them they wipe you out before you can complete one attack run. You fixed the CV's at even tiers but you did not degrade the other classes to reflect this. So as ships progress they gain huge amount of AA but lower level CV planes get destroyed relegated, to spotting and trying to stay out of AA range. Even at Tier 4, the Tier 3's that used to have no AA kill your aircraft off.
I love the concept of the new CV. More realistic in terms of not one shotting something in one major pass. The issue is now the CV is no longer a threat to be concerned about.
You need to give us triple XP for spotting because it is what you have turned us into.
