Aircraft depth charges appear to be set shallow.
If I can get below 40 meters before they drop, they don't seem to be a problem.

I thought this was discussed a long time ago and if I remember correctly< aircraft depth charges are set to 25m. So like said above, flank speed, dive and once you get to 40+m you are good.

The plane depth charges start counting dwon in the air though so they usually only go down at the most ten metres. Id say get down to 20 then pull up to persicope depth. That way any bombs they drop while your going down and at 20 metres wont hit you. Dont engage them unless thier already on top of you. Be careful of how much water you have under you, many a time ive crash dived into the ocean florr
