| Re: USS Kitty Hawk says sayonara 47 years of service is pretty darn good. I'm sure it was starting to be a struggle to keep everything running on her. Ever tried to get parts for anything that is 47 years old? | |||||||||||||

There is a group in North Carolina trying to get her. Would cost a ton of dough though. They estimate $7 million just to tow her down there. | ||||||||||||||

I sure hope they do get her........I don't want the Kitty Hawk to end up like the Enterprise did after WWII. JP | ||||||||||||||

Can always use another aircraft carrier as a museum, hope things work out this way for the USS Kitty Hawk. | ||||||||||||||
