Assault carrier landing spot

dhuff125 · November 5, 2006, 10:55am

I asked this question a few months back in the ship section and did not get a good response. Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the landing spot markings on an assault carrier.

Thanks

here are some jpeg images that i got from a safety hand book. it does not give dimensions but you can estimate the size pretty good. hope they help out.

Thanks Ordie, I think I found those same manuals. I also found a reference from a Nasa publication that said the stripes are 2’ wide. So I think I am close. I was hoping to hear from some of our service men to verify my research.

That’s cool. I have an OLD kit of an LPH that I want to make into the USS Guam, so if anyone out there has pics or info, please post them or email them to me please

Thanks all

I don’t know if this will help or not, but here is a photo from May of 77 aboard U.S.S. Guadalcanal, LPH-7
