Yes, it's possible with RSRD to circumnavigate the Philippine Islands in late 1941, when they were under almost complete control of the Japanese without encountering a single airplane. Considering that on your way out to sea you just watched a movie about how the British moved their battleships out to interdict the Japanese invasion of Singapore and they were promptly sunk by swarming Japanese aircraft, how are you to defend such a thing? I doubt that a submarine could remain surfaced for more than an hour in that vicinity at that time. I've been on the surface continuously for four days except for sonar sweeps!
Fact: the air was FULL of unopposed Japanese aircraft.

I love RSRD and consider it a must have but I do miss the lack of aircraft. The stock game probably over did it but like RR, I'm riding around Rabul in mid 42 on the surface and not a single aircraft. I have went four patrols before and not seen a single plane.
Maybe in the future, we can get an RSRD patch to add some of the aircraft back.
