MV Empire MacKendrick was a grain ship converted to become a Merchant Aircraft Carrier or MAC ship. The Burntisland Shipbuilding Company Ltd, Fife, Scotland, built her under order from the Ministry of War Transport and was delivered on 12 December 1943.[1] As a MAC ship, only her air crew and the necessary maintenance staff were naval personnel.[2] She was operated by William Thomson & Co (the Ben Line).[3] After the war the ship was converted to a grain carrier. In 1967 she was trapped in the Suez Canal by the Six-Day War. She was scrapped at Split in 1975.[3] See also
