| Part 2:: Harriers fly and practice on deck | ||
|
|
||
 |
||
| Marina version of the Harrier, here the twin-seater on the back-deck. | ||
 |
 |
|
| Once landed, take position, let the engine run ... | ||
 |
 |
|
| Immediately the AV-8 gets refuelled and blows the water away with his engines | ||
 |
 |
|
| Lot of parking movements, mind the wingtips boys ... | ||
 |
 |
|
| This day the weather was fine, the mood was good aboard ! | ||
 |
 |
|
| Pilot gets out, and every colour deck-guy has his own tasks | ||
 |
 |
|
| Nice view, notice the chains to avoid the plane moving from it's place | ||
 |
 |
|
| Parked along the side and on the back, the job is done ! | ||
 |
||
| Parked on the very end of the deck it seems to fall off... | ||
 |
 |
|
| But believe me, they don't ! Gracious they change deck for lift-off | ||
 |
 |
|
| Approaching sideways first... and than to their spot to land | ||
 |
 |
|
| To be refuelled quickly and choose the air again | ||
 |
||
| AV-8B a second before it leaves the ship | ||
 |
 |
|
| It's a mighty sight just a few meters in front of you to witness | ||
 |
||
| The centerfold of AERO Magazine | ||
 |
 |
|
| Monotonous ? No ! | ||
 |
||
| This one has two different numbers, very seldom seen | ||
 |
 |
|
| Rainwater gets blown from the deck, see left below where the plane landed | ||
 |

| The dual-seater takes it's position | ||
 |
||
| And nightflying is even more imposing in the moonshine ! | ||
| A very busy day comes to an end. Let's go to next morning. See page 3 | ||
