To make an aircraft carrier museum exhibit attractive, you need some aircraft, right?
Like all the carriers I've been on, the USS Yorktown has a collection of various aircraft on board to show the different types of operations the carrier could perform. This is a view from the rear quarter of an F-14A Tomcat, chained to the flight deck. It's not that the aircraft is going anywhere but when a hurricane rolls up the Atlantic coast the winds get pretty fierce.
Thankfully there was no accompanying Top Gun exhibit.
