Thanks for your replies. Although I hate the answer I will take my lumps. I always thought that in order to land a plane on a newly built carrier the plane must be located in the territory that the carrier is built in and must be on the ground in that territory.
That was true in Revised, but has not been true in any A&A game since then.
@booger-10:
So what happens when you build a carrier have planes in that territory that moved their 4-5 spaces landed back in the territory but once the carrier is built can be placed on the carrier in that sea zone. This happens all the time, does the plane get an extra move to land on that carrier? There seems to be a glitch in the rules in my opinion.
In order to land on a new carrier, an existing plane must end its movement in the sea zone in which the carrier will be mobilized. It may not be moved onto the carrier from a land territory in the Mobilize New Units phase.
