HMS Prince of Wales
Operating crewed and un-crewed air assets in the shape of the f35 and the Banshee from QinetiQ is another big step forward on our journey to joint carrier strike capability.

PoW

It’s been a fantastic couple of weeks preparing for operations with our colleagues and friends from 207 Sqn of RAF Marham. We say goodbye soon, but it won’t be long before we fly together again. BZ and Thanks very much!

My son was at Seaham Harbour this morning and sent me a photo of "HMS Dragon", when I looked at the photo it was of an aircraft carrier. When I checked the Marine Traffic shipping app it was showing as HMS Dragon but the photo displayed was that of HMS Queen Elizabeth, which is currently out East. Consequently, HMS Prince of Wales is currently off Seaham Harbour and doing 0.1 knot

Take it they mean IOW Festival.
PoW would be in the N.Sea to disembark the F35Bs to Marham.

She is reported to be disembarking FOST staff and other personnel ashore to RAF Leeming, around 160 personnel in all. My friend down that way reports plenty of Chinook and Merlin helicopters going to and fro.
