I spent 2 weeks on a (British) aircraft carrier once, sat through the first week of met briefings before I finally worked out why they never gave QFE and did it all on QNH.

QNE is good, I always use it in flight test reports, it doesn't actually change anything but confuses anybody who probably shouldn't be reading it (flight test reports always use 1013.25mb by standard convention).
