Noob vs aircraft

Hello veteran friends! I hope you can help me a bit.

I have just recently bought SH3 so I managed to start only two patrols so far. On both occasions I got creamed by British air patrols. That is not a problem in itself but on both occasions my watch officer reported "aircraft sighted" when bombs with Churchill's smiling face on them made big holes in my sub already. So I started to wonder whether my WO is pretty blind and cannot see the bomber before it hits him in his forehead or perhaps it's because of TC cause both attacks happened on 128xTC... I read that 128xTC is ok, but perhaps it is still risky?

What do you think? Should I drop TC a bit or should I drop it to 1x and watch for aircraft on my own (in which case I will throw my WO out in the middle of Arctic Sea on the nearest occasion).
