I'm an Army guy, but it sounds like they came up with a good idea. Thanks for sharing.

Just as we know that the purpose of the "ski-jump" forward is to enable propelling the ship by having jets repeatedly take off using it, the main function for two islands is for arranging intramural volleyball games on the flight deck. By the way, having jets repeatedly snag arrestor wires at speed doesn't hurt propulsion any. They call it "Push and Drag".

By the way, which island is Gilligan's? I'm looking for Mary Ann.

Does the use of the catapult not decrease her forward speed...[;)]...?..She hasn't got a catapult....?.. And the rearward blast from the aircrafts' jet engines...? Fred

Disappointed by the lack of a pair of furry dice above the helmsman

Two islands? I only see she has one-and-a-half - Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Not even close - Isle of Skye, Isle of Wight, Isle of Sheppey, Anglesey, Shetlands, Lindisfarne, Orkneys etc etc etc

It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma; but perhaps there is a key. Because there are 2 Queen Elizabeth's? One is Island of York, one is Island of Lancaster? One Island is Mary Queen of Scots? Boobs?

There's 6,000+ islands in GB and the majority are Scottish or scotch if you drunk.

I referred to both posts - I quoted both in my answer - and said that neither was close. I then gave just an example of islands off England, Scotland and Wales. This was hardly meant to be a definitive list as I said etc etc at the end. Are you suggesting I think Sheppey, Angelsey, Lindisfarne and Wight are off Scotland?
