Here she is gtb

Nektarios, you have a big model to do. Comparing her to your 1/700 model shows you have a mighty task. Thanks for saveing her. Good Luck on ALL your builds(which you don't need).

It looks huge gtb compared to the 1/700 ships. Now i need to buy aircraft, PE sets, weapons like phallanx and i need to scratchbuild the island in 1/350.

Nektario's, in your uss indenpendence cv62 on the first page from this topic.
You have an hangar in it?

Mitch

Mitch,
CV-62 has scratchbuilt a hangar. If i remember correctly it was my first attempt to add a hangar to a carrier .

Here are some photos of it.

Thnx mait!
Now i have a small question.
Is it an 100% fully closed hangar? Ore can u lift up the deck to see the inside?
And can u remember how much hangar bays you added? Because i can't find any picture's, so i just keep it at 2 hangar bays.
Section 1 for the fighters, section 2 for helicopters and other aircraft.
Nice to see the picture's, thanks!
*pss i gain a new squadron from planes from revell, just for 5 euro's! So total 90 planes, 20 helicopters, and 15 CIWS! *
Mitch

Mitch the hangar is fully closed. There is just one hangar not two of them.

In forrestal class?
In nimitz class there are 3 bay's, i mean whit this whit those doors that can be closed.

Mitch

If you mean with the hangar doors closed then Forrestals have two hangar deck sections.

Thanks for the info
Then i have my hangar deck plans right
Now i have to fit the hangar floor -.-

And now for something with a little more colour, boys...

Alright, I couldn't abandon those of you who beloved this project, who thought to look, who thought to comment. The PLAAF Hind-A is Finished! I loaded her up for true Crowd-cleaning, with Napalm and HE, the kind of subtle the PLAAF can appreciate. Yes, the markings are hand painted, much to my cursing, for those not in the know. Pictures!









Questions, comments, queries and Rude Remarks are, as always, not only welcome but invited and appreciated.

Enjoy!

Nektarios,you said that America is going to be the way she was in 97. Question are you going use the GMM late Nimitz p.e set for all the p.e work?

gtb i didn t say it will be the way it was in 97 bewcause then she was retired i said 1996 final cruise. I haven t studied what i can add to a carrier in 1/350.

Thanks, Nektarios - I hope you arrived well and everything's in order where you are? Hope you find what's on your list too.
