I went on this ship not to long ago!!:) Me and my fam took a vacation to NY and my dad told me he saw the carrier with people on it and as soon as he told me I was already in the hotel lobby:) I was a little bummed tho that all the engines were taken out and even covered:( Especially knowing there was an SR-71! Man was she a sight to see<3
