who made the mission you are flying ? simply could be an error in the persons mission parameters setup (bomb and fuel load to heavy, carrier speed to low)
if it is an oleg vanilla version that came with the regular updates/patches, it should work ok. there was a bug early on in the initial PF release where carrier speeds were very low and many people had problems taking of from carriers with heavy loads. this was corrected later, and afaik the AI never had a major takeoff problem in oleg's missions themselves
if it is a mission or campaign you got from a 3e party, there could be a mission design error (which most likely you can correct in the mission file, by increasing carrier speed (to give increased lift), or reducing bomb/fuel load
