Another update before I go travelling..........

............

Man, These ships are beautiful works of art. What I particularly like is the look and feel of steel plate, and it is great to see them under construction -just like sitting and watching in a shipyard. Thanks for all the hard work on these projects - and for the carriers in YAP.

Thanks.

And once the light AA is done, and work on the radar and mast completed, Essex will be set for launch.

Gonna make any modifications to the design for the 'long hulled' Essexes or will they be needed for any upcoming versions?

Decisions like that are beyond my pay grade.

Essex set for commissioning.

Another Triumph, thanks Hinch.
