By the way, my primal rule against aircraft is never try to engage it but always order a crash dive as soon as your WO reports the contact. Only use the deck gun if you're unable to dive. According to my experiences diving fast is the best method against air attacks.
That's what I usualy do. But one of the times I was caught in a Leigh Light.
