Black Bat thank you for sorting this out. I tend to gloss things over to get discussion going and you have added valuable info.Having Eagle as well as CVA01 in the 70s would have made it easier to keep one ship at sea at all times. How often two could have deployed given budget and crew problems is a bit doubtful.I think Hermes would still have been converted to an LPH unless the UK chose to remain East of Suez.Using Hermes as the Buccaneer carrier while CVA or Eagle just shipped Phantoms might then have been valuable.God forbid but a Tory government might have joined Australia and New Zealand in Vietnam and the RN might have been on the Yankee Station as it had been in Korea. Too much alt history I know but.
