UK - London - Royal Navy XX in HMS Illustrious hangar during open-day

A Chief Petty Officer near the Navy's Ensign flag on the hangar deck during a tour by the general public on-board the Royal Navy's aircraft carrier HMS Illustrious during a public open-day in Greenwich. Illustrious docked on the river Thames, allowing the tax-paying public to tour its decks before its forthcoming decommisioning. Navy personnel helped with the PR event over the May weekend, historically the home of Britain's naval fleet.
