She is in far better condition, especially the interior, than one would know. This especially so when compared to Intrepid, Yorktown and Lexington. Many of the ships systems are operational due to volunteers. I have restored her for 10 years now. | ||||

She only picked up Apollo 11 (1st moon landing), and Apollo 12 (All Navy Crew). | ||||
