Our thoughts are with her family and those who served with her.

Welcome to the Queen Elizabeth Carrier Strike Group, USS Philippine Sea and USS Truxtun @USNavy. The Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser and Arleigh Burke-class destroyer have joined us as #UKF35 jet trials continue in the USA #WESTLANT19 #jointcapability @RoyalNavy

So we have managed to avoid @TopGunMovie quotes/references for the whole of Deck Trials; but we just had to with this photo…..
Tower, this is Ghostrider; request a flyby.
That’s a negative Ghostrider, the pattern is full.

"We embarked the largest air group of 5th generation fighters ever put to sea – finally silencing those who harp on about ‘carriers without jets’ ... We accomplished what many doubted possible by forming a sovereign British strike group". @smrmoorhouse

11 years between these pictures; the RN has today again launched a jet from a carrier whilst replenishing at sea. This force-multiplier shows the Service's transformation in that time; Invincible to QE class, Wave to Tide class and Harrier to Lightning #WESTLANT19 #backinthegame
112
Two more UK Lightnings have landed onboard, as Operational Tests by @17SqnRAF and @OC617Sqn continue. The deck is getting busier and louder with six 🇬🇧⚡️ now embarked, #WESTLANT19 is just a taste of what is to come. @RoyalNavy @RoyalAirForce #bigdecksfastjets #FlyNavy #QNLZatSea

They shall grow not old as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.
