Thank you Norbert and Perth, it,s always a pleasure to heard these kind words from you.

Perth, the hangar deck, for example, is made from 2 mm thick evergreen sheet, and the antiskid layer are made from sand paper, grain 320.

You achieved a great work inside the ship, it will deserve some lights so it can be seen when the hangar will be closed by the flightdeck !

Jaguar,
Looking good, I'm thinking of doing a Nimitz on my next build. Be 1/72. Just a thought. I will have to save your build post for referencing. Hope your winter builds are good to you.
