To make an carrier exhibit attractive, you need some , 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 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.
