It would take some sleight-of-hand on the part of the mission builder. You would have one carrier configured for takeoff. You could have a second identical carrier, configured for landing, sitting off in some far corner of the map. This carrier would have the barrier up and maybe some static aircraft parked behind the barrier.
At 10 minutes or so into the mission when everyone has taken off from the first carrier and is heading off to wherever, you would send the first carrier off to the far corners, and bring the second carrier into position. And this switch could be made very quickly, maybe almost instantly, by manually editing the speed of the carriers between those waypoints in the mission file. I don't know what's the max speed you can make a carrier go between waypoints.
Sounds kind kludgy behind the scenes, but for those participating in the mission it would seem very real.
