Hey - you can drive around the deck of Nimitz in it - great. But I couldn't get down into the hangar because it won't stay still long enough with the brakes on. Why not a YASim towtruck then we can pull ac out of the hangar etc.? And we need reverse gear. Good fun ... Now I must do something about lashings for ac on the carrier ...
