I was an AT in VA-165, the Boomers, an A-6E Intruder squadron of CAG-9 deployed aboard Connie from '79 to '82. She was a mighty fighting ship. I was watching a local newscast one morning several yrs ago. A segment came on reporting the decommissioning of Constellation. It brought a tear to my eye.
Hi Stephen I was X-3 Div Captain's Office(Ship's Company) from 79 to 81. I was first of Ship's Company off in Oct 80 because by youngest was youngest baby. He is now 38 and a 20 year Army major. The Capt Leon Edney rose to 4 star admiral. After our cruise he became Superintendent of the Naval Academy. It was the best of times and it was the worst of times.
Aircraft carrier CV-64 scale 1/144. More like Aircraft Carrier flight deck in 1/144 scale. But anyway, nice job on whats there..... and those aircraft look great! Good work!
Can’t imagine how long all those aircraft took to build. Still have a crap load of1/350 aircraft to build for my Kitty Hawk. I’ll get around to it one of these days. Great work.
What scale are the Aircraft and the other figurines? 1/144 as well? I'm going to build a 1/350 Nimitz, however when I finish I want to take a try at a scratch built as well. I want it to be big enough to have aircraft models on it that I can still detail the cockpits. 1/144 aircraft seems perfect to me.
Hello, very good video, I wanted to ask you how you did to put that little airplanes on it, does it come with the collection of the aircraft carrier or did you buy them part by part?
Believe it or not this is the kitty hawk cv63 it caught on fire when they were building it and cv64 so to not be too far behind schedule they switched builds because the fire would have put the kitty hawk out after the constellation. I know this because I served on the cv64in 1991 and noticed that it hat cv63 kitty hawk in locations that were never changed and asked about why it said kitty hawk to superior service men on board. I was a damage control man. This ship was cut up for scrap some years back.
I served on that ship from 2001 to 2003
Nice job my friend...I have one of the Nimitz I built 20+ yrs ago...same scale 1/144
Wow pretty awesome model of my dad's ship.
Absolutly amazing dude. The music, the model kits... good job.
