Warning planes:
-Put two reference points near the carrier, set "lock reference points" to the carrier, then make a support mission.
Patrol:
-Simple solution is to make a group of reference points around the carrier, lock them to the ship/group, then do an AAW patrol (be sure to set "investigate outside patrol area" to off if there are neutrals so they don't run away). More advanced solution is to make a bigger "patrol" area in addition to the smaller one, set that as the prosecution area, and set "investigate outside" to on.
