Just to be politically correct, it's not a CVN, but a "jeep carrier", a CVE.
Still, a helova project.

Wow. I have always dreamed of doing that in 1/72nd. And only a dream it is.

Did anyone notice the dolphins in the bow wake!?!?

Wait a minute! The deck activity changes depending upon which page you are on and the F6Fs wings are depicted both locked, folding and folded. Certainly that is just different models, but I noticed on page 34 and 35 the models have scale tie downs. This guy has a whole fleet of naval airplanes!

AS I mentioned in my post I'm still looking for a link. However the carrier my club was building had fully working elevators and lit interiors. Also it had a full fleet of planes ready to go.
