Does anyone know, where could I find more detailed info of the USS Coral Sea aircraft carrier, time-period late 60's, early 70's ?
Mostly to know precisely what type of airplanes, helicopters etc it carried in that period of time.

Oh my, that is great stuff times 1000 ! I will spend "some" hours the coming days going through these two adresses!
Many thanks Carlos, this was much more than I could hope for!
(PS. Very interesting pictures over the dismantling and at the same time sad to see a ship go like that.)
Thanks once more!

You’re welcome Kari. I’ve known a few guys who served on the Coral Sea long ago, And yes having known them, it is sad to see those scrapyard photos, knowing that was a seagoing home to so many such men over the decades of her life.
Enjoy those sites!
