Can't survive with new crew

I have the standard cd install of SH3 plux Commander...Laptop won't handle anything more...

I started a 1942 campaign in Bergan, Norway with the VIIC boat.

I have made two attempts with just a crew with "0" experience.
Using the map that came with the SH3 original I have plotted my course to stay outside the land based aircraft areas.

On each patrol attempt I have gotten the "ship spotted" and within a few seconds I get the small window showing a single engine aircraft with floats on short final for his bombing run.

I don't even have time to hit the "C" key to start a dive.

Are we not able to complete a patrol with a crew with zero time?

I am to far away from land for a single engine on floats so it must be launched from a ship with a cherry picker (crain). actually, no aircraft on floats is going to be able to survive a landing in those high waves...But, no matter...

Is this sim workable with a zero experience crew? the days were both clear so even an inexperienced crew would see an aircraft before he right over the boat on his final run...
he was NOT coming in out of the sun...
