Aircraft+Carrier


 * Aircraft Carrier Models Christian Ramirez & Michael Peña
 * At the air museum they had 1/16 scale models of some of the aircraft carriers that were actually used in WW2.
 * Christian's Reflection- The thing that interested me the most at the Palm Springs Air Museum when we went was the scale models that were displayed in the photo above. The models that were displayed were models of ships that were really used in World War 2, after being restored. These models fascinated me because one person made all 8 of the models that are currently there on display. The use of these ships was for not only war but they also used it as an aircraft carrier as you know, they could just fly all their airplanes out from sea, which was quite an advantage. And for battles on the sea, they had a total of 73 50-caliber machine guns onboard. As for living quarters, it was tight, but they managed.


 * Michael's Reflecion- I wish i could have gone on the trip. It seemed fun but i didn't get the permission slip signed. I am interested on the ships that would carry the planes off to sea to take off and fight the Nazis.
