The picture of all the planes on the Ark Royal looks like a big cluster ——. Our carriers never look that cluttered because they’re bigger.
When we were manning the fuel pits, a RN Buccaneer came down the taxiway, and it came to a complete stop, and smoke started pouring out of the thing. Back the canopy went, and both crewmen jumped out and ran about 30 yards away on the grass!
The trucks came over and put out the fire, so I don't think there was any long term damage, but there was something comical about they way they jumped out and ran! I am sure I would have too, in their shoes...it just looked funny!
