Why Australia get rid out aircraft carriers ?

We should keep our Super Hornets we have in Service with the Air Force! Get new Aircraft carriers! 2 New Aircraft carriers and use 12 Super Hornets on each of them.

It certainly was an exciting place to work as a young 18 year old. Happy memories.

In response to @stealthchaser, it was 1978.

@wehawtin Did you know any of the Airframe Technical people working on the Skyhawks during that time? 72-76

@stealthchaser Have a few episodes of PB on VHS (with the A boats, forgot it's fictional name)
