USS Truman (CVN-75) in Marseille

Post by Iwan Bogels »

[Edit] These first two posts were a reaction to what's quoted in the third!

Damn !

When the Growlers arrive, they just need to refit Hornets with a radome or rotor blades, and every aircraft on the ship will be a Hornet....

Pfff....I already start to miss the F-14's and S-3's.

But good to see you scored well.

Cheers,
Iwan

I know pictures are not allowed here, but this seemed the best spot to put this little drawing.

This should be the correct version of the aircraft on deck on Saturday afternoon.
AC-614 indeed was on deck.
