Wonder how much shipping would be... I'd like to see Greyhound handle THAT one :D

Would be one heckuva flying club though!

I think the navy has a ship that can pick up other ships. I remember this ship they use to pick up the uss Cole, pretty neat the way the ship was sitting on the deck of the other ship.

I can't believe it has 70 bids

The ad say's it's just under 700 feet long. From the picture I'd guess the run way is 300-400. For the money I think you could get a much larger field somewhere, not to mention the first step off the side of the run way is a doozy.

Will AMA insurance cover me if I fly my planes from it?

BasinBum 01-01-2004 02:08 PM

RE: Purchase A Private Flying Field.
 
Only if you have your AMA# on the wing or inside the plane.

Seriously though, doesn't 10M sound a little low?

3DFanatic 01-02-2004 02:59 AM

RE: Purchase A Private Flying Field.
 
Heck, you could use the full 653 feet if you wanted to!
That'd be so friggen cool having your model F-18 and flying it off a carrier :D

Yes you could buy a much larger field for 8M, but it wouldn't have an indoor flying field underneath the outdoor one ;)

The description reads in part, "We are shipbroker and not arms dealer."

Sounds like a Saturday Night Live skit.

From back when SNL was funny http://home.earthlink.net/~dojbofh/i...ile/lol-fc.gif

Yup, it seems as though the auction has disappeared. But when auctions finish, don't they take 90 days to vanish from the database? Hmmm..... -Andrew

I was just about to bid too!

(And I told you guys 8M was a little low :))

Last amount I saw on that auction for the aircraft carrier was 90M+.....it has disappeared from the ebay listings now. Either the seller ended the auction early or ebay killed the auction for some reason.

3DFanatic 01-03-2004 02:23 AM

RE: <span class=
 
it went from 8M to 90M in TWO days? Whoa...[X(]

RE: <span class=
 
I already have a carrier.
Lookin for a battleship now. Anyone know where one is just sittin around.
I don't mind fixin her up a bit if she needs it.

RE: <span class=
 
Bummer....they yanked the carrier. [:o] I had my heart set on that baby,
....I had my "Super Sniper" software all set to snag that puppy....

I was gonna go down and park next to Jimmy Buffet....fly r/c off the deck,
drink plenty of margarittas, and eat shrimp cocktails all day....for the
rest of my life. (not to mention all the babes) :eek:

....oh well....I'll just wait till the next one comes along. :D
