America's flagship once again faces an uncertain future. We created this new extended trailer for Lady in Waiting as part of an ongoing push to get the film re-broadcast on American Public Television throughout the country.

  • she was saved on july 1st so when i saw it over thanksgiving break it was being repainted

  • @gemmyfreak2871 Not sure what activity you might have seen aboard the ship at Thanksgiving, but she is not currently being repainted, nor is she technically saved. She has a 20 month "stay of execution," now more than ever those who wish to see her permanently saved should get involved in the ongoing effort. Just wanted to clarify.

  • @bigshipfilms so, what's going on with it?

  • @TheBlueRiband1 Check out ssunitedstatesconservancyDOTor­g for all the lasts SSUS news!

  • probably headed to india for scrap !!

  • Too bad the money wasted on Solyndra didn't go towards this great ship instead. $535 million would have had this national treasure running at 45 knots once again.

  • Very well put together video, I love how it flips back and forth between what she once was and her current state.

  • In light of the America's Cup coming to San Francisco, why not bring her here? The Port of San Francisco would be an ideal harbor - either as museum, hotel or restaurant - or still in active use for South America excursions. I've actually contacted the newly elected mayor of our city about this, just yesterday - and awaiting response.

  • @marieprewett O.o Whatever you say.

  • @localfive0 You may be correct but this thread is not hte place for political discussion.

  • @marieprewett I'll speculate that you're either Republican, or racist.

  • @localfive0 I'll speculate that it's so he can say that he got him and Bush didn't.

  • @marieprewett If Obama was anti-American pride as you say he is, why did he order Osama Bin Laden's execution?

  • Were there records kept of who bought what when all her fittings were auctioned off in 1984? I'm wondering if it's possible to track down one of theose Steinway Pianos...
