I do miss living on a carrier. Then I remember I can sleep in my own bed.

I have all the respect in the world for those folks who go down to the sea in ships. I am an ex-paratrooper and I don't think I would fare well on an aircraft carrier.

Not being much of a boat or ship fan, I've only been on boats that, when you go into a turn, lean _inwards, _ so that if you're sitting in the cabin area, you aren't fighting centrifugal (centripedal?) forces to stay in your seat. I get such a kick out of seeing these _GARGANTUAN_ ships lean _outwards_ in sharp turns. Hold onto something!!!

Russian sailors who watch this video must just shake their heads and wonder, “wtf, why can’t we…?”

In the 90s as a kid on a family trip we saw the aircraft carriers. They were 5 billion in 98'. We were there to watch my brothers marine Corp. Graduation.

I wonder which lucky cities will ever see this aircraft carrier

[JibWangson]

Saw this video on Navy Productions' channel

Been there done that. USS America ( CV-66) '74 - '78. The only thing I think the Ford crew doesn't get to enjoy is the every three day night time refueling evolutions. Sure we had the usual unreps and vertreps, but the refueling was every three days.

We slept on the same bunks in shifts.❤

If I were to ever enter naval service aboard an aircraft carrier, put me in the galley (same for any other ship). I’d be too nervous on the flight deck.

[Gurra_Gforce]

1000 feet. I don't do freedom units, but I guess that's A long boat

[MrChosenOne]

I live next to it when they were building it

[Kilstryke]

I'm disappointed there's no mention of where the ship gets all its electricity and heating from.

[Jasona]

Think of all of the young male couples which form on board. ❤❤❤

[nesseihtgnay]

Why it's called the floating city?
