Brits and French to share aircraft carrier(s)?

So what happens on board this new CV when the Brits toast the Immortal Memory? :D
 
The French get scared and abandon ship.

Actually, I think they would be more likely to deliver the ship in working order to whoever scared them in the first place. Then surrender. Reminds me of the joke:

Q: Why do many major roads in France have trees planted on both sides?

A: So the Germans can march in the shade.
 
This concept could provide a limitless source of jokes........

"The French fly the fighters and the British provide the cooks'"

"Is it possible to surrender to your shipmates?"

Jay Leno prays for news stories like this......
 
Male berthing on a US ship stinks.......just imagine what French berthing smells like after flight ops in the Gulf in the middle of July.
 
Interesting. The British CVs are not supposed to come with cat's or arresting gear. I guess if they really want interoperability, they would have to.
 
Very interesting. I think this bodes ill for the military readiness of our allies. If it happens, then the carriers would never get underway, much less operate aircraft or perform any missions. Too much red tape, I would think.
