That's one of the prettiest pictures of an Adams class I've ever seen. Thanks, I've already copied it to my hard drive along with the others I have. Served on the original Charles F. Adams in 1969.

It is actually a pic of HMAS Brisbane taken during the Gulf War (First).

Since we're talking about models.....

I would love to get a large model of the USS Enterprise (either carrier) to have in my room to go alongside with my Enterprise ships from Star Trek.

Problem is, I suck at building these things -- never had any success, and the ones I had allready were assembled for me by a friend no longer in the area.

Any suggestions? :)

Talking of models...how about these?

If one has a lack of time (such as I) then you could always buy a ready made ship....diecast no less. It is a bit hard to tell from the pics if the detail is as good as they claim. Go and have a look:-
