Burial at sea for your OSF?

[Mk2Jo]

Apparently this is what the troops do on the aircraft carriers while they're standing around with nothing to do Have catapult, will fire

[Copey]

in fairness then they wernt rare, would be like troops now shooting off a 5 year old focus, still sad though

How old is the photo Jo?

 

We don't have any carriers like that and haven't done for nearly 30 years, if it's a recent photo it's probably a US carrier and they're unlikely to have access to any OSF's (fortunately)

 

edit: it's definitely a US carrier, CVN 65, USS Enterprise.

 

 

She's been knocking around since 1960 so that could have been taken when OSF's were NSF's and ten a penny

I can't even begin to imagine. Put it this way, a steam catapult will accelerate a 30 ton aircraft from 0 to 160mph in 2.5 seconds!
