33 what?  Ounces, gallons?  He asked, puzzled.  Undecided

Communicating with naval types can be such a chore.  Lips Sealed  But this Measure 33 seems to be a camo scheme for a new carrier skin underway over at CG's Shipyard ( http://www.simviation.com/lair/cfs2shipyard.htm ).   We will soon have another little escort carrier with which to play.  Wink

The rest of the story....yes, I'm telling stories out of school.  Smiley

It's all BUB's (AKA Bob McGee's) fault, so you can thank him for petitioning the Collin, who has a well-known weakness for new MeasuresSmiley 

Bob's uncle-in-law flew from this baby and was highly decorated for what he did with his TBF.  Cool

The wonderful thing about this sim...if one has a personnel connection to the history...whether it be a plane...
paint...ship or hula girl  Kiss, one can usually find a talented developer who will kindly make that history live again.

A very large Thank You to Collin and TR for the Kadashan Bay.  It is much appreciated by myself and my wife.  As TR stated, her Uncle flew an Avenger off her deck and participated in Leyte Gulf, along with other actions finally being put out of action by a kamakaze hit.  During the battle his Squadron, VC-20, attacked the Yamato and scored hits on the Nagato.
Hopefully, soon, I'll upload textures for his Avenger and a couple of FM-2 skins also.
Again, thanks to the both of you for your efforts on bringing this ship to life.

Smiley Holy Smoke, Batman!  CVE-76 USS Kadashan Bay 1944 is undergoing sea trials and is soon to be released to fleet duty.  We've been needing another WWII escort carrier....from the Shipyard with an assist from the airbrushes of Collin and Bub.  Smiley
