I seem to have lost the screenshot, but here is what I remember:
After building my first Floatplane Carrier (AV) I wanted to give them some planes (capacity 16), but I can't. It does not appear in the list of bases/ships under "manage air groups". And when I right click them to assign aircraft to them the game tells me I should select a carrier instead.

Unlike other aircraft, floatplanes are not assigned to ships by the player. Floatplane carriers, cruisers, and capital ships with flatlands receive their aircraft automatically.

But it didn't carry aircraft into battle and I have no floatplanes in service (according to the aircraft type list). |

You need to develop or buy a license for a floatplane in order for the automatic assignment to be able to assign anything to floatplane-carrying ships. Also, the "In Service" column only shows aircraft in / needed for manually-created squadrons - those on CVs, CVLs, and airbases - and thus will not in general display anything other than 0/0 for floatplanes. The only exception is if you elect to place floatplane squadrons at your airbases, in which case the game will show the number of aircraft in and needed for those squadrons in the "In Service" column next to the floatplane types that have been assigned to those squadrons. |
