When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

That is the USS Coral Sea, one of three Midway class carriers built.  Midway and Franklin D. Roosevelt being the other two.  Production of that class stopped when a new "super carrier" was proposed and designed.  It was scrapped before the keel was laid.  The Forrestall class became the basis for all new carriers.

Very interesting, how many planes does a carrier like this carry?

Generally there are between 70 and 90 aircraft on board.  Again generally, each aircraft brings 15 personnel with it along with 1 & 1/2 pilots per plane.  The actual count of fighters, bombers, tankers, EW and ASW aircraft varies with mission for that deployment.  The crew total for the "super" carriers runs in the 5000 to 5500 when the air wing is on board.  The Essex class, the Midway class and the Forestall class were all smaller then today's carriers so plane load out was smaller.

I'm pretty sure we're looking at Snow Cruiser in 878
