There is a mod to reduce aircraft ranges, made by Gizzmoe I think.
---snip from readme-file---
Less air patrols for SH3 1.4!!!
I have changed the 1.4 planes back to 1.3 level ("MaxRadius" in the cfg files). Some had more than twice the range of 1.3. Download the file below and unpack it to sh3\data\air.

I gave the new Wellington the range of the B24 and the P38 has now the same original range as the FW200.

I've been using this patch ever since SH3 v1.4 patch came out, but there's still -plenty- of enemy aircraft to deal with, especially when 1943 rolls around.
You might want to DL and try this mod. If you think aircraft ranges are not great enough, just revert back to original (backed-up) v1.4 aircraft files. It's not a 'save-all' for late-war patrols but it helps.
