Looks like a pain to dust.

Hrm. Looks like an early 1980s Air Wing (Hornets were introduced 1983, but there's an SH3 helicopter on deck).

I'd rather see the 1967 Air Wing on the 'USS Forest Fire'.

Do you like the model…?

Honestly, Armand?

I don't think I like the model.

The jet blast deflectors behind the catapults aren't right, the defenses are particularly low-detail, and the model itself is an odd scale so it'd be hard to correct the details.

I did my one and only carrier landing on her in 1974. Spent two days on her while I was in transit to my ship. Then I left her in a SH 3. Carriers are impressive and big.
