    Just in time to be equal to the Enterprise, the carrier we built 50ish years ago.

    On a separate note, terrible shame about your carriers.

    what happened to their carriers?

    "Scientists don't use "averages". Maybe armchair supertools on message boards ascribe some meaning to "averages" between two random data points. And maybe clueless amatuers "draw a straight line" through two random end data points to define a "trend". Experts don't.

    They use mean annual and five year means in trend analysis. Don't tell me I have to explain the difference to you. "

    That's a long story, the dozy bastards sold off the Sea Harriers to you lot for a song and scrapped the carriers. The two new ones are way over budget and they have discovered that the cats and traps will cost nearer to £2 billion so now they want to go back to the VSTOL variant of the F-35.
