Pontius,
Looks like it is back to the CVF for the EAWs. No need for all the manpower reqd for land based ops as it is already there in the ship. As far as I can understand from the blurb on the Joint Combat Aircraft era Lossie will embark its airgroup of 36 into HMS Queen Elizabeth and operate from the sea. No requirement for a huge airborne logistics train to get the a/c into theatre as it will already being contained within the task group. This should allow a good saving on the strategic airlift needed to get shore based airpower into theatre.
