Can i use planes from AC to attack adjacent SZ and return planes to AC after attack? AC doesn’t move ofc.

Hey again!
One question after today’s game:)
Can my fleet (in state of war) pass through SZ with an occupied island (some infantry) withou stopping? I know when your unit enter on hostile terriotry must stop but island is spearate territory than SZ?

Question about scramble:

A quick reaction team of no more than 3 defending fighters and/or tactical bombers (strategic bombers can’t scramble)
located on each island or coastal territory that has an operative air base can be scrambled to defend against attacks in the
sea zones adjacent to those territories. These air units can be scrambled to help friendly units in adjacent sea zones that have
come under attack. They can also be scrambled to resist amphibious assaults from adjacent sea zones, whether or not the
territory being assaulted is the territory containing the air base. They may defend against the enemy ships conducting the
amphibious assault even if friendly ships are not present.

If i’m not mistaken it means if amphibious attack is started i can scramble even if there isn’t any airbase? (only at least 1 plane?). And if i wanna do scramble in normal defense i need airbase?

I bought it from some polish boradgaming forum user. It was pretty new and cheap (45 euros). Now i know i wanna play Global :).

Thanks again!
We play Pacific 1940 first edition but on Alpha +3 rules
Where can i buy Europe 1940 first edition with option shipping to Europe?

Thanks!
Wake belonged to me.
1 more question:
1.Example:
Japan captured Qeensland and in next combat move turn they wanna to attack Sydney by ground forces from Queensland (artillery and infantry). Japan have also AC and Battleship on SZ around Sydney. So my question is: Can Battleship do bombardment from SZ if i’m not use transport ship in this attack? Of course planes from AC will be assist.

@SuperTramp:

2 Example:
��� forces ( few ships, planes and transport with ground units) move from Japan on Midway (where is only airbase). Can 2 Aircraft Carrires go there and then attack by planes adjacement area (Hawaiian Islands)?

Thanks again, and 2nd question?
I found something like that:
Movement of airplanes is counted from starting position.  The planes take off and the carrier moves seperate.
So it mean planes in that case are moving with ship 3 sea zones?

Another question:
Example:
Japan forces attack from Wake Islands US forces on Hawaiian Islands (there was sea battle and amphibious attack), unfortunately japan forces had to retreat. So 2 damaged AC 1 transport with 1 infantry and some ships moved to SZ around Wake Islands back.
My questions are:
If in US turn will be attack on Wake Islands can planes from damged AC (which landed on Wake Island) do scramble?
Where should be retreated jap infantry on island or on transport ship around?

Another question:
1 Example:
��� forces doing amphibious assault on Philippines (1 transport with 2 inf., fighter, 2 strategic bombers, destroyer, submarine and battleship). US have 2 infantry and fighter on island and destroyer , submarine in sea zone 35. So first there is sea battle and all US ships were destroyed + scrambled fighter. And then ��� player try to take island by ampibious attack. In that case which units can participe in attack? Only 2 infantry on transport? Or maybe every forces (without sub), or inf and planes only?
2 Example:
Jap forces ( few ships, planes and transport with ground units) move from Japan on Midway (where is only airbase). Can 2 Aircraft Carrires go there and then attack by planes adjacement area (Hawaiian Islands)?

After today’s game:)
I know UK can take dutch territories without consequence of war with japan. They have 2 transport ships and 4 inf able to do that in first round (1st edition of game). But can they do it? (i mean take 3 territories of dutch and gain +5 bonus ) in 1st round? In other words can UK load 2 inf on 1 transport and take 2 islands in one combat move?

Example:
There is an island with japanese fighter (no airbase) and some warships around. US attack these ships. Can jap player use fighter to defend in that battle?
