Dawn Patrol from John Rogers Field (1930's)

[Jean Loup]

In my FS9 configured as Golden Wings 3 with Golden Hawaii Active, I choose the Dawn Patrol flight & then selected the Curtiss P.6E "Hawk". I have the intention of landing on a derelict aircraft carrier navigating south of the John Rogers field were I'm based. Stars are still twinkling before sunrise, when I start the engine & take off.

John Rogers field at my 7 O'clock,


A Lockheed Electra is taxiing into position for take off at my 6 O'clock,


A jet trail in the 1930's? Turning East,


Turning South,


There is my landing spot!


UPS! Coming in a little squewed


Nailed my touch down just in time


Not bad for no arrestor cables, still have some deck to spare


What carrier would this be? Has no name on it (USS Lexington or USS Saratoga, maybe?)
