I have never heard of a single navy aircraft getting airborne at
Pearl Harbor. Was this because all the naval aircraft were based
at a single facility? Has there ever been an accounting of what
actually happened to immobilize the navy air?

The army managed to get up an assortment of fighters for at least
a token defense.


The Navy fighters were aboard the carriers which were all at sea.
