Alot depends on if the mod your using has the 2nd support group in or not. But generally speaking there is no best route out of biscay bay to get into the south atlantic.
You have two options really.
a.) start snorkeling soon after you leave port, and never surface. Snorkel long enough to recharge bats, and bring the mast down. Although this isnt REALLY neccessary tell 44, and you'll hate it when it becomes neccessary.
b.) Run with decks awash and be ready to dive at any tiime. Decks awash will cut your dive time by half.
As for TC, i normaly run at like 512 if i think im going to crash dive soon. (Try late 44, eeessshhh). If i im not expecting a whole lot ill run at 1024. transatlantic ill kick it up to 2048. The key here is that in my main.cfg in mydocuments for the TC settings on aicraft warning i put it at -1. So anytime an aircraft is spotted, the game pauses. THis way if im afk , or can't bring TC fast enough, the game pauses so i can react to it. What range the aircraft is spotted at seeminglly varies on weather. If the weather is overcast but clear, or light fog, im liable to dive rather then risk being surpised.
