Night in San Diego667 viewsThis photo taken at night in San Diego shows Kitty Hawk and Constellation tied up behind Ranger. This may have been taken about 1985 during the filming of "Star Trek: The Voyage Home" as you can see all three ships in the movie just as in this photo. Ranger was standing in for Enterprise during the filming of the movie.

Indy and Connie look in bad shape. They are in the process of being prepped for disposal. Ranger is still on donation hold and, hopefully, will be going to Portland as a museum. Kitty Hawk is listed at the Naval Vessels Register as "out of commission, in reserve." Current date is 6/20/10.

Underway some time prior to 1972198 viewsUnknown when this was taken. It has to be prior to 1972 because of the Phantoms on the flight deck. The plane spotted on the #4 cat is an A-3 Skywarrior (Whale).
