Uss abraham lincoln

[chiawatkom]

After the two prototypes, I start the number 3 CVN 72 Abraham Lincoln. From the Nimitz class super carrier framework, we can develop and modified ships in this class as same as the Arleigh Burke destroyer.

The next project will be the FORRESTAL, this idea emerged when I put the Phantom II on board then felt I should put the cold war planes era on it. Let do it next!

I wondered why my mobile phone set for USS ABRAHAM LINCOLN but the heading thread always made them funny every times I made the heading.

Forgive me for this telecommunication error.

A USS Forrestal would mean I can change it to USS Saratoga.........

Any chance of doing any of the older carriers?

Specifically the SBC-27 mods of the Essex/Ticonderoga carriers...........a sorely under represented group in both plastic and paper.

Also any of the un-modded Essex/Ticonderoga class would be nice too!

Just some ideas.........

Dear John,

It is good to see you again here in the ship forum.

WW II aircraft carrier mean my available paper airplane such as the Hellcat and Hell Driver will have a good place to land.

It means that my dream to draw the Corsair and the Avenger has more chance.

One by one class then I will do it when I can.

Thank you.

With the straight decks versions.........F9F Panthers, F2 Banshees, AD Skyraiders, and of course F4U Corsairs, HUP 1 and HOS 1 Heleos in Korean colors would fit very nicely too!

With the SBC-27 mods.......F-8 Crusaders, A-1 Skyraiders, A-4 Skyhawks, A-7 Corsair IIs, Sea Sprite Helos in Vietnam colors would be welcomed too!

F-4 Phantom II were too big for the "small" deck carriers........ but they were used as anti-sub carriers so S-2 Trackers, Sea Kings, Sea Sprites, COD Traders.....

really opens up a huge list of possibilities..........

I give the airplanes for freebies to the buyers. They can also buy the 1/350 model for decoration the flight deck. The service truck and salvage crane also provide to the model. I understand how difficult to find the right model to fit the ship. It is better to give them as complimenr.

For the WWII era, I prefer those propeller and pristal engine than the early jet era but I will try to study for impressing them.

After the Nimitz class, of course, the Forrestal is next,

After the new island design which it will be use for this aircraft carrier class. The test build was done for the new flight deck. Minor correction for the supporting below the deck needed to be improved.

I consider that the hull will complete by tonight.

Hello!

Thank you for coming my friend!

I wish you will enjoy this aircraft carrier soon and wishing to see your incredible craftmanship to make the tiny jet fleet.

Yes, I invented this design with new boxing structure to facilitate children and global modelers. Ship makes easy by this simple technique and you just spend one and half day to finish this giant fish.

The hull and flight deck with the island was assemblied,
