Caldwell, who has worked on several U.S. carriers, said the similarities between the two navies outweigh the differences, and said the major distinction was the number of sorties he handles a day. "On U.S. carriers we trap about 160 aircraft a day at sea, but here it's just 35-40 a day," he said...
According to the article you quoted:
...Some 20 aircraft have been based on the ship for sorties over Libya, including Rafales, Hawkeyes and attack helicopters."
Unless our US friend is lying, I make that two sorties per day for most aircraft.
The RAF has around 20 a/c based at Gioia del Colle. How does their sortie rate compare?
