U.S.S Nimitz.


Delightful shot of the U.S.S Nimitz whilst in historic Pearl Harbour.

Probably the Missouri as she is a museum ship in Pearl Harbour. The white object between the carrier and BB is the Pearl Harbour memorial

Nice pic and that Nimitz would be a fantastic model for R/C, I have always liked Aircraft Carriers especially R/C ones....think it goes back to when I was quite young and used to go to Elstead pond in Surrey where the local R/C Boat club used to sail. I saw my first R/C Carrier there and it was huge. Sadly I don't know which ship it was, but as a very young boy (aged about 6 then I think) It made a lasting impression on me.

Regards............Mark.
