[quote]What is blue, a quarter of a mile long, and taller than London's Olympic stadium? The answer: this year's new class of container ship, the Triple E. When it goes into service this June, it will be the largest vessel ploughing the sea.[/quote] If this thing is the biggest ship on the sea and probably costs less to upkeep than an aircraft carrier and built to be somewhat similar to help against piracy, couldn't we just launch aircraft off this thing until the real ones are ready?
