The flight deck coating should have been laid in dry, warm conditions....where was it originally laid, one asks?.......speaks volumes about QA for the QE.
This ship is dogged with problems which will take years to iron out. Let's hope she's not called up for action in that period.
Did you know that there are now problems with the exhaust speed of the F35 in VTOL configuration? Can the flt deck surface material cope?
The F35 also operates at 4 x the Db noise signature of the Harrier in the hover. How will flt deck crews cope with this?
