Our rotary wing elements are duty 24/7 whilst we are at sea.
As their tasking is flexible and often time critical, they have to be savvy in keeping aircraft sustainable.
So, here is next generation pay at pump - Helicopter In-Flight Refuelling.

So how can this page help our fantastic followers in these trying times.
Well, isolation is something we are pretty used to as sailors so, why not give some tips to get you through this.
One a day with a nice pic until normal life returns, I get told off or you get bored 😂

Happy #RAF100 birthday to Flight Lieutenant North. Andy joined us in Nov 17 as the first ‘light blue’ member of Ship’s Company and was the first member of the @RoyalAirForce to go to sea in a QEC carrier. Serving in a @RoyalNavy warship is definitely #NoOrdinaryJob!

A perfect sunrise over the flightdeck this morning.

A year of sunsets and sunrises at sea. As the sun sets on 2017, a dawn of a new era of @RoyalNavy carrier aviation begins in 2018. Happy New Year to all of our followers across the world. #HappyNewYear2018

4 years ago our Lady Sponsor, Her Majesty The Queen, named 65k tonne HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH.
In the words of then First Sea Lord, Admiral Sir Zambellas: “The naming of HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH heralds a new dawn not only for the Royal Navy but for the delivery of our Nation’s security”.
The @RoyalNavy's flagship and first Queen Elizabeth-class aircraft carrier. ⚓️🇬🇧
