On the day the Invincible was towed off to be made into bean cans I thought I'd post a few pictures of her replacement in the graveyard in Portsmouth, HMS Ark Royal.
Taken the week before her official de-commissioning, stripped of all her weapons and most everything else as well.

The hangar that will never see a Harrier or Merlin again
The final bell
