Good point but then I would expect to see smoke coming from the hanger and boat well, both amidships and astern, areas as well.

I have been trying to come up with an explanation that explains everything I see but it just doesn't make sense.

While I really want to hear the rest of the story on this one, I doubt that we will.

Sounds like the smoking lamp was lit throughout the ship and the crew has a hell of a cig addiction.
