A Mediterranean voyage in this exciting and famous aircraft-carrier.
Landing on the flight-deck and catapult take-offs, helicopter rescues at sea, ships steaming at high speed within a few feet of each other, destroyer and submarine screens at work - all part of the complex life on board a modern aircraft-carrier which you can see in this film.
Ships seen include:
H.M.S. Ark Royal Albion, Cavendish, Salisbury, Carysfort, Torquay
R.F.A. Tideflow, Tidereach
Cameramen, Ken Westbury, Jimmy Court. Also Royal Naval cameramen
