Wonder if there is a CV group at anchor in the lagoon.

Yet another reason to dump CV air groups down lower in plane count. I suppose you can assume they flew off the planes and landed them at the airbase at Truk. Not sure if the IJN did that, the USN always did (so the planes would be available to fly while the CV was incapable of flight ops (since they need to steam ahead to conduct air ops)).
