I'll have to agree here too. By 1998, the resources to ready an aircraft carrier would no longer exist or be in very short supply, used elsewhere. The equipment to use and maintain the aircraft would similarly be in short supply. More likely, the ship may have been cut up for scrap, to use the metal plates for other projects.

Now I LIKE that idea actually...or even as a floating base.

Of course as New Orleans got nuked, who'd want to live the glowing metal coffin?

At least you wouldn't have to worry about lighting the place at night...

well it could have been bought and moved to Mobile to be added to the USS Alabama Museum. missing the nuke and being some what restored.
and if you looking for a possible ship to use as a sea base how about the USS Gage a Haskell class Assault transport. i also have some of her deck plans as well as plans for WW2 Era LSTs' LCIs' as well as ther specs. any one interested? |
