this case, because of its relatively small size, the word for the smaller vessels has been applied. A flying bridge implies a structure high up, in an elevate position well above the main deck, not appropriate here. The usage of naval terminology can be tortuous and arcane, this is a typical example. -
437:
Well, the navy called it a charthouse. A charthouse was not a platform, it was the place from which the ship was conned and would have been at least partially enclosed. Normally, ships are conned from the bridge, whereas in smaller vessels there is often smaller structure called the charthouse. In

by the Royal Navy during World War I, but was modified while still under construction with a flight deck that replaced her forward gun turret. She served as an aircraft carrier during the war, but was laid up afterwards and would have been scrapped in accordance with the terms of the Washington Naval

Chesneau's book has a photograph of the the structure, it was quite large and was on the centreline. I think we should stick with the references regarding what to call this, but I have modified the section to expand a little in the navigating facilities. Re-reading the reference it is not clear
416:
I don't understand why the ship had a 'retractable charthouse' at the forward end of the flight deck and the wiki link here is probably not helpful - I doubt they kept the charts on a retractable platform! What about 'flying bridge'? Its seems pretty unique so maybe a description is probably

What I meant was the wikilink's definition doesn't match this type of navigation platform. It was kind of a flying bridge - a google search revealed it was not a 'house', just a open air platform raised up above the flight deck and probably was only used when there were no aircraft taking

Treaty of 1922 if she had been rebuilt to a much better design as flush-decked aircraft carrier. She was one of two prewar aircraft carriers to survive World War II, but was obsolete by the end of the war and scrapped a few years afterward. This article went through a MilHist

Thanks for the picture! Note: the glossary definition doesn't match the OED now, but that's what multiple books about British CVs call these retractable navigation platforms on the center line (along with 'wheelhouse').

that the structure was used for conning the ship, it may well have been used as a place to use charts as the usual definition implies. In the photograph it is quite clear that this was not simply an open platform. -

Look again, she reached 30.03 knots during the post-conversion sea trials. 3rd para in the overview section. After being retubed and given a machinery refit in 1932 she reached 28.8 knots.--
365:- Repeated doesn't seem like the right word; they took the Champion's basic design but installed at least 2x the turbines, boilers and shafts. Maybe you can just describe the difference? 222: 40: 30: 17: 363:
To save design time the installation used in the light cruiser Champion, the first cruiser in the RN with geared turbines, was simply repeated.

The speed figure in the infobox for CV version (30 kt) is uncited; the prose indicates the trial speed after the full conversion was 28.8 kt.
