Darren Houston ended his time as Captain of HMS PoW in July this year. Nipper was gutted he missed him leaving PWLS at Gib due to his Phalanx training.

That'll mean we'll have two carriers operating aircraft at sea at the same time.
I have it on good authority that Silly Billy will be out at sea again very soon...

Re: Queen Elizabeth Class Aircraft Carriers - News and Discussion
Nipper back on board after successfully completing his Phalanx course and a couple of weeks on hols.
Hope he hasn't lost his sea legs whilst being ashore for so long, he'll need them soon enough.

Re: Queen Elizabeth Class Aircraft Carriers - News and Discussion
That article regarding PTB's is odd as I have seen them on PWLS and nipper was on one when transferring off for his course. I guess they've been shared between the 2 QE class up to now.

PWLS has indeed got her PompeyRevs on, nipper might pop down and see her come in as it's not a view he normally gets!
