-=> Quoting Jim Sanders to All on News-876 <=-
JS> British Royal Air Force GR7 Harrier Jump Jet aircrafts with the
JS> No.1 Squadron are seen on the HMS Invincible aircraft carrier Monday
JS> Nov. 24, in the Mediterranean Sea. The Harriers are from RAF Witter-
JS> ing in England. The carrier discontinued a tour of the Caribbean to
JS> sail into the Mediterranean for possible use in the Persian Gulf.
BTW, It's not the first time the RN has carried RAF aircraft towards a
potential battle zone. They did so in 1982, along with several STUFT
ships (Ships Taken Up From Trade), heading for the Falklands.
