Another very important distinction between the three aircraft carriers:
- HMS Queen Elizabeth & Prince of Wales are both diesel-powered.
- The French Navy's Charles De Gaulle is nuclear-powered.
That's an important difference.
Conventionally-powered carriers have limited range and time at sea as they must be constantly refueled.
Nuclear-powered carriers can stay out at sea, far away from their home ports for very long periods of time (supposedly 20 years!). That makes them basically a floating air force base that can station itself in position near battle zones for years, if need be.
To my knowledge, the Charles De Gaulle is the only non-US Navy nuclear powered aircraft carrier. No other navy has one. The US Navy has eleven!!
Re Podcasts: I feel like this can only work for people who like podcasts. I prefer reading and would really struggle if a company would run pods only.
Writing and pods come together well if you would offer transcripts, and recordings of writing, but the question is if this is possible and makes sense. It is probably a bit different format in any case. I would be interested in the stats of people listening to internal stuff.
We record a lot of meetings, but I never so far listened to any.

Honesty Pays 😇!!! [The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good people do nothing.] Choose to believe that most people are good!
