"Helm, standby; bat-turn to starboard, course 090 degrees, flank speed."

"Aye, Captain, bat-turn to 090, flank."

"Execute"

I've read all sorts of rumors that the top speed of U.S. nuclear carriers is *way* in excess of the nominal speed of 33 knots or so; that they can actually plane like speedboats while doing 40-50-60 plus knots.  Any former squids here to enlighten us?
