Sister Ship to 
But merlin still remains the same
11 years between these pictures; the RN has today again launched a jet from a carrier whilst replenishing at sea.

Does a helicopter always hover over the hose during replenishing? If so, why? Or just done today for photographic continuity?

I’d be surprised if it’s over the hose. Generally astern flight deck to the rear of the deck, conducting a vertrep.

Just finished watching Britain’s Biggest Warship series 2, Great series about a Great ship, I hope the ship’s company is as proud of themselves as we are of you

I second that John, both series have been fantastic but to be honest, everything that Chris Terrell does is brilliant. Rule Brittania!
