By NO Means an expert but...
I've been dealing with planes a lot lately while getting to the South China Sea and in cruising that area. I've always caught approaching planes on my radar in plenty of time to submerge from normal surface cruising depth to periscope depth in plenty of time to avoid detection without any crash diving. I generally plot the course of the planes when first detected and try to avoid diving if the plane's closest approach point puts me outside 5500 Meters. If it's gonna be a near thing that I think is questionable, I go to decks awash and then wait to make the final call a bit later.
Planes tend to stay on course so 7 minutes from the time I've hit periscope depth I'm surfacing and continuing on. Ramping up acceleration a step at a time back to 256 or so. It then drops back down to 8 when the next plane is spotted. It's mostly an annoyance that I wish I could leave standing orders for. (an automated mode maybe in SH6)
