Vissitudes only in that in my view, fixed wing carrier aviation far too quickly was abandoned both by the RN as well as my own country's RCN ... plus its all I could think of with the suitable alliterative quality of the subject.

Anyway, let's cast off and head off in search of the Vic ...

A special thanks to DaveB, who modded "Reef's" gorgeous Vixen textures to have a grey (rather than dielectric black) nose. Many kind thanks, good sir!

Precariously positioned pneumatic peripherals in that last shot, Daniel!
I hope that the parking brakes are fully on. :worried:

Thanks lads. They're not much - I never edit screens, so it's just raw FSXAccel+DX10+REX+Water Configurator; nothing "post production".

Well played, Mike :thumbsup: There's more room there than the shot suggests, but yes, it's a tight fit aboard the Vic. This photo (if you look on the far left) shows the Buccs ranged fwd of the island, and with what appears their rear fuselage over the edge:

Have a super day!
