1300...but im sure you and 200 of your closest friends could flesh out a skeleton crew

If they threw in the 5" guns I might have some interest...

USS Las Vegas...

If I had the financial backing for opening up a new type of resort casino... this is exactly what I would be looking for...

I was going to buy it, but found that they will not throw in the A-4 Skyhawks!:mad:

The Constelation is supposed to be decommissioned some time soon after being launched in the early 60s. This flat top beats it by about 15 years. It has had a long life. Let hope Iran doesn't buy it!

$4,5 M? That's a bargain! Especially if it comes with radar and propulsion.... :p They usually rip those things out first and sell the hulk...

I can't even begin to list what I could use this baby for....even without aircraft. (Heck, I'd build up a go-cart track on the top!)

Y'know, I'll be up in that area on vacation the end of June; mebbe they'll let me take the beast out for a test-drive? <G>

"Pardon me, but is this 25 knots fast enough for water-skiiing?"

Hmmm. If it's got a shallow enough draft, I might be able to get it up the Columbia as far as TriCities, but I'd have to trailer it the rest of the way to Lake Cour d'Alene...

EDIT: D'oh! Just looked over their other listings to see if you could get some escorts as well, and the bloody thing is in Rio. <sigh> Rio would be *nice*, admittedly, but about the time I can afford Rio, I'd be able to at least put a down on the carrier.

Oh well.
