    The attention to detail is remarkable. The flight deck actually looks real, as well as the sponsons, aircraft, & surface rust. Nice job.

    Was on CV-62 93-95. Your aircraft are the same as when I was in Indy, however your ship configuration is 30 years too early for that airwing. No 5” guns, and radar/ecm packages are ancient history. Elevator 1 (port) hardly ever was in the lowered position while underway as well. The helicopters always launched/recovered on the port side angle up between elevator 1, and the meatball. Beautiful model. Wish I had a late Independence version!

      I was in V-3 Division on FID from 88-90. We called the portside elevator "#2." We never used it - even in port because (ironically) the ship always moored on the starboard side. IMO it and the lack of a JBD for the portside waist catapult were real flaws in the Forrestal's design that they "fixed" when they designed the Kitty Hawk.

    • @davidgardner863
      @davidgardner863 Před 3 lety +1

      I can verify that. I was on the Forrestal in1970-71 and on the Independence in 1971-72. One reason the port elevator was never lowered underway was if it broke down in the lowered position, all air ops would stop.

      @kwaktak Před 4 lety

      I was aboard in 1988-1990 and heard of this but I was in Air Dept so I was not on a need to know basis. There was also a lot of cavitation when the ship would make flank speed for flight ops. You could really feel it the further aft you went.

    @cwengineer Před 10 lety +2

    Two of my best friends served on the FID...one twice, in '67 off VN and after SLEP in '85 (which I worked on as a structural engineer). The 5"/54 gun mounts were gone long before the WestPac deployment, and especially the fire in '67. The F-14's first appeared in the fleet deployed on the USS Enterprise (CVN 65) in 1975. Otherwise, a beautiful model, great detail.

      I did a TAD aboard for sea trials off VACAPES spring of '85, replacing a weather forecaster (AG) who was transferred during the SLEP. My ship at the time, Lexington, was still in drydock and Forrestal needed volunteers to fill out the crew for the 2 week sea trial. Forrestal suffered some damage in a Hatteras Low during the trials that we had to return early to have repaired. What a monster storm!

    • @kwaktak
      @kwaktak Před 4 lety

      Did this happen in drydock in Philadelphia or are you confusing this with what happened at Yankee Station on 7/29/67? I'd heard that there was a fire on Kitty Hawk when it was in Philly for SLEP.

  • @michiganengineer8621
    @michiganengineer8621 Před 5 lety

    Obviously before several major upgrades were made. No Phalanx or Sea Sparrows for defense and several of the radars were replaced during the SLEP program of the late 1970's early 1980's. Fun factoid regarding Forrestal and Saratoga. During construction, the ship that BECAME Forrestal wore hull number 60. There was an upgrade in the catapult systems that they wanted to incorporate into the ships. Since CVA-60 wasn't as far along, they put the new steam cats in THAT hull first and painted it as CVA-59. Then they cut into the flight deck of hull #59, replaced the cats and finished THAT one as CVA-60. I served on Saratoga and if you looked VERY carefully under the nonskid at the bow of the flight deck, you could still see the faint outline of the welded "59" in the steel.

    when I was on board the real carrier it never carried f-14's just phantoms f-4 and corsairs. one of the anchors flutes is suppose to be broken on the starboard side. It was busted in early 1970's when they bounced it on the rock bottom of a bay we shared with Russians in the med. needs a ladder to the waterline with platform on the fantail that's where the crew boarded liberty boats when in the med for liberty.

    Der Schwimmbad-Sprecher hat es glaube ich in dem Video gesagt, aber ich konnte dessen schweizer Akzent bei den Hintergrundgeräuschen nicht so richtig verstehen.
    Hattest Du Baupläne von der US Navy oder von einem Anbieter wie z.B. Floating Drydock oder Jacobin Plans?
    Oder hast Du dir selber welche nach einem Revell Bausatz und Photos vom Original konstruiert?
    Bis vor ein paar Jahren konnte man ja noch sehr umfangreiche Sets der Werftpläne von dem einen oder beiden französischen Flugzeugträger(n) (FOCH u. CLEMENCEAU) kostenlos von einer Website des französischen Verteidigungsministerium herunterladen.
    Leider verschwanden die Links aber, wie gesagt.
    Möglich, dass sie immer noch von einer anderen Website zu bekommen sind, kenne aber deren Link nicht.
