HMS Ark Royal (1950)

No. 1 [Flight] Deck. A view across the flight deck from forward of the raised inboard hydraulic jet blast deflector. In the background to the left is the aft end of the island superstructure, the dome of the Type 963 Carrier Controlled Approach Radar and the starboard Deck Landing Projector Sight Mk 1A.

This is part of a series of photographs taken during the final stages of HMS Ark Royal's last major refit which was completed in 1970. The location references are derived from the deck plans in the latest edition of the ship's NBCD book.
