Aircraft Carriers

of the Royal Canadian Navy

The two photos were taken onboard the Magnificent!
One photo shows us how the planes were lowered in the hangars on one of the two elevators, one in front and one back aft. Another photo shows the preparations for a series of take off,  We see that space was restricted for such manoeuvres.

Only the "Firefly" had a pilot and an observer. The other fighter-bombers only had one pilot.
These operations were conducted very quickly, thanks to well-trained men.

Three "Sea Fury" in training ......


A Sea Fury takes off in the evening! 


A "crash"! It sometimes happened ...


again ...


Here is the emblem that I have on my wall with my   Commander sword. Vercingetorix is our emblem, who was a warrior who lived 72 years BC .....


Now comes the emblem of the Magnificent in the same place. A sun in the middle of which a maple leaf! I think these two emblems are most beautiful!
These bells are now all that's left of Warrior and the Magnificent,
In a museum in Nova Scotia ...
       
These bells were used to give us time only!
