There should be a treasure hunt for the kids. You get a sheet of paper with a list of things you need. Say some chain lashings, dipclear, getting an aircraft moved with less than 2 days' notice, getting some food in the aircrew feeder, some AOG spares from the deep stores, flares from the weapon engineers and some way to defuel.

The kids are told that a number of interactive virtual people around the ship have what they need and when they get it all they can fly in a real helicopter. They rush around, each person giving them a different excuse (not my department, not in the afternoon, incorrect form, will have to check with a supervisor, that defuel point is U/S, there's no such thing as flares for aircraft, you can't have that spare part etc). When they get back to the original person they asked, they shrug and give it to them.

When/if they fill their sheet they climb into the aircraft on deck which goes tits on start. The end. Invoice in the post!
