In the holidays, Toby was lucky enough to go to San Francisco and visit the USS Hornet Museum. The USS Hornet is a WWII Aircraft Carrier.
We found out that the USS Hornet is 266m long! We measured it out on the footpath. Kaden is waving to us from 'the end of the ship'! Can you see him?
We made our own USS Hornets. We had to include; a jet blast deflector (to protect the other planes on deck), a catapult (to launch the plane), an arresting cable (to catch the plane's tail hook), and a crash barricade (to stop the plane if it misses the arresting cable).
Thanks for sharing your amazing trip with us Toby. We had great fun learning about Aircraft Carriers.
