Turns out the crew bailed the ship ahead of passengers. Sigh. Back to military stuffs:

EDIT: Starting to hate myself for posting a clip from a film that was rather over hollywood-ised in the extreme.
What a prick, he lied to the coast guard multiple times, about the scale of damage and about the amount of passengers left on board... Then just stops responding and is seen departing the ship half an hour before the passengers get evacuated. Lol?
Lol. Yes, you'd need to line up three or four Ronald Reagans one after another to land this beast.
Actually, the C-17 requires very little runway to land on. However, the bridge of the carrier as well as the right wing of the C-17 would be gone.
Even on dry surface and without cargo he wouldn't manage to stop before the carrier ends... Maybe we can try doing it when NWAC is released if C-17s are in. I don't expect navy to try to crash one into a carrier just to prove one of our points.
Oh and here's a completely biased picture that makes the carrier look like it's very short:

The wingspan of a C17 is 51 meters and the flightdeck of a Nimitz-class carrier is 77 meters. A C17 is a bit larger than a C130 but then again, a Nimitz carrier is a bit larger than a Forrestal carrier.
They are going to raise HMS Victory from the bottom of the sea, along with 500 bil worth of junk.
Would they be bottlenecking Abe Lincoln in the Persian Gulf, past the Hormuz Strait, if they planned attacking Iran any soon? Btw, that's the "Mission Accomplished" carrier.

Neither. Routine deployment on a patrol the RN has been maintaining for 30 years.
If I'm not mistaken every destroyer and frigate currently in active service (Except for the Type 45s) have been down there at least once.
