Plane take-off rate is also as important as number of planes. Having lots of planes and just 2 runways makes a carrier vulnerable since she can't deploy her full air strength against an adversary that's closing in fast (you can employ the backing up/running away tactic but this doesn't work all the time). As an example, Colbert carries 150 aircraft and has 5 runways.
