If you use TDWs UI mod - there is an option for at what range does your TC drops to x1 when spotting a ship.
You can also look here:-

note the bold is for aeroplanes - TC to x8 when spotted with travel mode on.
You can edit this with notepad.
But even with these changes - if you have TC at x 512 and a plane is spotted 7km away and it is going 90km per hour - it will be ontop of you by the time everything re-acts.
When im in an area where areoplanes have already been spotted - I stay at 64TC
