Iowa's have 12" portholes and 16" airports.
All the openings around the wardroom are 16" airports.
You will need to reference a good set of plans to locate every airport on the ship.
There are some in strange locations but the interior space dictated them to be there.


The Floating Drydock has a CD with incredible amount of detail that has the information.
