Early this afternoon (February 13, 2012) a section of the flight deck for the new aircraft carrier HMS QUEEN ELIZABETH which is being constructed in the Cammell Laird construction hall was moved out of the side entrance and moved round to the front of the building.

I have posted some photos of the event taken from the Mersey Ferry Royal Iris.

Maybe they will get the complete boat ready for the next Falklands war and even build the planes for these museum pieces, thought they might have sold them on to Royal Caribbean cruises or Fred Olsen line as a new way to fly directly onto your cruise ship.

Dig deep your great, great grandkids will be still be paying for them.

PS, Iam delighted Cammell Laird's got a little piece of the cheese.

its ironic that the area of Great Britain that is benifitting the most from the employment of shipyard workers building the aircraft carriers may soon become an independent nation {Scotland}.
