Battle of Coral Sea Yorktown CV-5

[rtfoe]

Fantastic news Greg. With the now livable conditions the calmed mind will be exercised with simple Ikea construction to ease you back into the highly complicated carrier you have introduced us to. When that happens we'll do a potluck and BYOC(bring your own chair) to the construction site.

Cheers,
Richard aka Wabble

Just spent some time rereading this from page 1, talk about a labour of love and skill .
I'm not surprised that the Committee has already awarded you 2 DOGS, no doubt there will be another at the finish !

Hope this will be in a museum at some point as it deserves to be seen by many .

Thank you all 4 your kind comments..
Here is today's update..
I started the 2nd external starboard wall...prepared the internal wall for the elevator..and finally adding more details of the 1st external starboard wall...sorry for the repetition from now it will be wall A (1st) and wall B (2nd)..
Have a good one

 

[BigGreg]

Dear all..
Here is today's update..well l added more details on wall A and after checking again and again and asking on navy forum l decided to modify the hangar wall and make the slope bulkhead air tight (it's nominated in the official carrier plans) you can barely see it in ONE picture during the battle of Midway...
Enjoy
