I wouldn't mind owning my own carrier, you could have your own little island... "uh oh, company coming, time to pull up the anchor and change our address"

..and tie a kite to it!!

Alright, alright you can have your kite, but make it one of those cool stunt kites OK?

I wonder if there is a backround check on this purchase.

You'd have to let your destination know you were coming... you could spook some small country somewhere driving that thing around!

Love the party deck though.

Well it's not nuclear powered, so it should be a free for all

I'm a little short for the 6.5 million. Do you think that I could get an ATS discount to make it, 50 bucks or so

*Woo hoo* - I'll try not to get it caught in the radar.

yay ats headquarters !
and we wont need to pay taxes or rent or nothing
cause we live at sea so we dont actually belong 2 any country

Just done a check on the ship designation A11 and name Minas Gerais

Guess what the Seller lied 1953! Actually built in 1942

She is a British Colossus-class Light Fleet Carrier

Originally commisssioned as HMSVengeance was a light fleet aircraft carrier of the Royal Navy's Colossus Class. She was built by Swan Hunter, launched on 16th November, 1942, and commissioned 14th January, 1945.

HMS Vengeance was decommissioned in 1955 from the Royal Navy and sold to Brazil on 12th December 1956, where she was commissioned into the Brazilian Navy in 1960 and renamed Navio-Aer�dromo Ligeiro (NAeL) Minas Gerais, and coded A-11.

see NAeL Minas Gerais - Brazilian Navy

Apparently the Chinese originally bought her for $1.9m but then fell out with the Brazilian Navy over who should pay for the cost of sailing her to China (estimated at $1m)

WOW Brazil has a Navy? i thought they just fu**ed about on Rio De Jeniro beach all day long and then build shanty towns outside there cits..that is a shock! *no offence to any Brazilians that may read this im just j/k*

My order:

*This aircraft carrier.

*I also have called up the Russian embassy and order 50 Su-30 MKK fitted with the newest radars and AA-10 Alamo missiles.

*I also called the US embassy and ordered 10 Camache helos fitted with the latest ASW warfare tech.

*Just finished taking to Persident Putin and was said that 5 Topol ICBM will be ready by July 30th 2004.

*Just for the kicks ordered a U-2 plane from US embassy so I have a early worring about a possible attack.

*Partiot anti-air missle are going to be done in 2 weeks or so President Bush said.

*The hull of the aircraft carrier was modified by Russian submarine engineers and now holds a Borey class Russian newest sub the is fitted with 36 nukes and 50 SET-65 torpedos.

I have finish most of my project know now give me some more ideas as what I should put on this carrier cause I am planing to take over the world in it!
