[BITList] Assembly to begin on Britain's biggest warship -Channel 4 News

[HUGH]

Colin,

Converted could mean anything.  The article talks about "assembling" the vessel, "piecing it together", so God alone knows about "conversion".  I hope they've enough decent shipwrights and welders to do the alignment. Lithgows used to do it afloat, using cofferdams, but that was then, this is now.

Hugh.
