That's the USS Ronald Regan If I remember "76" correctly.I saw her at the 2001 Blue Angel's Airshow in San Francisco Bay. Is this carrier still active duty?
Rick this carrier is definitely on active duty. It was launched in 2001 (commissioned in 2003) and is in the latest generation (Nimitz class nuclear powered). If you look closely you can see crew on the flight deck in whites.Jack Cunninghamhttp://www.photoartbycunningham.com

Interesting, Jack. Saw a programme about the RR on Discovery channel a week ago. Never expect to see that here !Learn as if you were going to live forever. Live as if you were going to die tomorrow - Gandhi
Thanks Glenn. I used to do a lot of deep sea fishing and it's a real wake up call when you are in the channel heading out to sea on a dark foggy morning before dawn and you hear this blast from a huge foghorn and you can barely see the bow of the boat and no way can you see the buoys marking the channel or the countless boats moored behind them----makes for a fun morning. The radar didn't work that well in all that congestion.Jack Cunninghamhttp://www.photoartbycunningham.com
