The photo of Invincible's hangar was taken in the narrow centre section; the ships hangars had a 'Dumbell' shape with wider bays a the front and rear. The forward bay was usually used for major maintenance jobs like engine changes on the Sea Harriers, as to remove the engine you had to lift the wing off and there was an overhead crane forward:View attachment 45397 View attachment 45398 The upper picture shows the aft hangar bay, normally home to the helos requiring maintenance whilst the Harriers used the forward bay. The lower picture compares the size of the Invincible's hangar and lifts (blue outlines) with the CVF hangar and lifts (red outline). A lot more room to party!

Showing two F-35B on the aft elevator, prolly 2 would fit on foreward elevator as well...

The two lifts are the same size, so what fits on one will fit on the other. The max payload for the lifts is 70tonnes, and an empty F-35B weighs just 13 tonnes. Remember for safety reasons you don't fuel or arm them until they are on deck!

Yes and for safety reason also on US CVN JP-8 used by USAF and provided by tankers to USN Aircrafts is degassed from USN aicrafts on the flight deck before aircraft going in the hangar USN want for security rules only birds with JP-5 it's fuel

in the hangar.

Other détails proving rules and military capacity are completely different in war time in peace time CVN must refuel when he have minimum 60 % of the aviation fuel so 40 % really usable, in war time 20 and 80 % ! coz the fuel in fund of the tank can to be of less good quality.
