I dont have a FLAGG, so I decided to try my hand at making something close to the scale that the original was done. First, I always hated the fact that you could only launch one aircraft on deck, it should be two. I love the working elevator, not sure how I will do it, but I will think of something. Considering the fact that this is a playset, I took liberty with the landing section, there is nothing on the port side other than edge.
9 feet long x 4 feet wide (at widest) and x3 ft w (at least widest-front and rear) Granted its a bit bigger but it allows for more room of aircraft and accessories like flight deck equipment. I plan on making the flight deck this weekend if I have time, if anyone knows where I can pick up an old FLAGG superstructure/island PLEASE lmk If any of you have suggestions, please post them. Please disregard the MAC n Cheese boxes, I needed to have a physical reference, there is only so much I can do on paper sketching this thing. I had made a few tries at a newer looking flight deck design but I decided to stay more close to the original, in spirit anyway. I want to see how the skystrikers do on it later.

Nice layout! How about an elevator for the rear too?

try looking for those small scale models of any aircraft carrier, then try to come up with details also.
then estimate on the decks below. well, if you want to. like what would fit below.
