Default Re: Pics of USS Enterprise elevator...

Thanks Jeff. To be honest I don't know if any even exist. I do know that for a short while the Enterprise was the only CV the US had in the Pacific and for a time due to bomb damage the elevator was stuck in the down position. The flight deck only got smaller as more planes landed before they could be taken to the hanger. I just think it would be a very powerful photograph to see planes taking off and landing with a huge hole in the deck.
