***don't confuse spawned airplanes with airplanes that are scripted by the mission.

Yes, it works. I ran a custom mission with a Malta-bound convoy that included a British carrier. After several ships were sunk the carrier launched Swordfish to defend the merchants. However, aircraft seem to materialize in midair; there are most likely no actual takeoffs/landings.
