Russian Navy's carrier Admiral Kuznetsov is on fire at dock in Murmansk. Reportedly the fire started from welding and spread to diesel fuel in power plant 1. One person is missing and six have been injured.

Kuznetsov has been at the dock for two years now after it returned from a tour in Syria. The previous accident was in October 2018 when Russia's only floating dry dock big enough to handle the ship sank and one of the cranes fell on Kuznetsov's deck. They are currently merging and enlarging two drydocks to finish the repairs by 2022.

:ussr:

doesn't look much different from it in regular operation.

Maybe because of the walls around them caused problems with the air (don't know what it's called), like what apparently happened at the Bin Laden compound?

Phanatic posted:

Ground effect isn't about walls being around you and ducting the airflow, it's just being close to the ground. If you're in a helicopter close to the ground, then less air is flowing down through the rotor disc, which in turn means that for a given blade pitch angle you have more thrust. It's kind of the opposite of settling with power. Getting into disturbed airflow near the ground because there are walls and other objects around you that are deflecting the downwash back into the helicopter and sending it skating all around isn't ground effect, it's just a bad situation.

You're right. I was lumping the impact of non-infinite 'airspace' on aerodynamics together as "ground effect". Aero 1 & 2 was too many years ago.
