Do you fancy a what aircraft carrier for a change?

dook 11th Apr 2019 13:15

Why not indeed.

nvubu 11th Apr 2019 13:29

OK, I'll start off with a couple of fairly generic views of this carrier. I don't think you will be able to get it from these, but it should narrow down the Navy.

Yorktown maybe.

nvubu 11th Apr 2019 13:56

It isn't the Yorktown, but like the Yorktown (CV-10) it was launched during WWII.

So, an Essex class ?

Or maybe the training carrier Sable.

edit: not so sure about Sable though.

Davidsoffice 11th Apr 2019 15:01

San Jacinto perhaps?

dook 11th Apr 2019 15:02

Another shot - Cowpens ?

JENKINS 11th Apr 2019 15:37

I had been looking for USS Hornet, relevant at the moment, so how about it?

dook 11th Apr 2019 16:19

And I've also been looking at Intrepid.

nvubu 11th Apr 2019 16:37

Blimey, lot of activity this afternoon

Don't need to answer No, No, Yes, No, No, as bang in the middle Davidsoffice has it with USS San Jacinto - CVL-30. President Bush senior served on this carrier. Interesting set of funnels.

Over to you Davidsoffice.

I'll do another carrier in the future.

I'll do another carrier in the future.
Assuming you win! ;)

dook 11th Apr 2019 17:26

Or we get yet another OH, which I think is coming next.

Davidsoffice 11th Apr 2019 17:30

Quite correct dook. I'll be scanning my pictures in soon, now that retirement beckons, so will be able to contribute... also free from restrictions on file transfer that the office places.

dook 11th Apr 2019 17:37

I can thoroughly recommend retirement.

Now, who's got the next one I wonder.

dook 11th Apr 2019 19:02

What are we looking at ?

Self loading bear 11th Apr 2019 19:06

This time it is not an birds eye view but more a moles view of the runway (extension)

dook 11th Apr 2019 19:10

Leipzig...?
