Hi Ron, thank you very much.

I was glad that for once I had the chance to take some photos. My first aircraft carrier on its last trip.

person

Great photo of the ARK ROYAL Thankyou Ron

person

Don't know anything about the "normal" span of life of an aircraft carrier.
So it's an early retirement at 25?

person

Came a total surprise to many the early pay off.
