Actually not. The big minelaying operations didn't begin until April 1940, and while there were air patrols the British didn't have enough planes for them to be called "massive". They were hardly ready for the Battle of Britain almost a year later.
That you didn't see any planes at all is regretable. There are planes around, just not a lot of them.
