That's BK-1 (ZM135) rolling out of the Fort Worth factory, prior to her LO coatings. Now happily gracing the Florida skies alongside BK-2 (ZM136).

AM2 matting used at the 'expeditionary airfield' centre field at Pax River, right next to the ski jump. The test fleet have used it for some time now, including using it as a 'dummy deck' prior to initial sea trials.

That badge looks familiar, especially if you used to work on Harriers!
