The only sad thing was the fact that the idiots in goverment spent good money on a major refit, then decided to lay her up. if every old warship was preserved we'd be seeing hundreds of them clogging up the docks; also, by preserving her we'd loose the name to any future warships - and that really would be a shame!

Read on the BBC yesterday that the MOD plans that Illustrious will be preserved as a momument to the class. Don't hold your breath that will happen though.

So now there's no more CV in active service within RN?

Illustrios is still in service if i'm not mistaken, at least until 2014.

I read somewhere that they might rename PoW Ark Royal.

If we really need 2 supercarriers, why has the RN been left so short in that dept for the next 5 years?

Massive waste of money, I think. Better to buy a couple of old wasps off the US!
