The "Jimmy Carter" is under construction and will probably replace the one that is oldest now. It's condition inspection may have shown it to be in best shape so was extended until the Carter comes on line? As an aside, what did Jimmy ever do to warrant naming a carrier after him  (Big John On Tue, 15 Jul 2003 03:52:35 GMT, "Jay Honeck" wrote: The results of a little quick Googling: http://www.navy.mil/homepages/cv64/noflash/home.htm Thanks, John. Interesting that they are de-commissioning the SECOND oldest carrier in the arsenal, the Constellation. Why not put the FIRST oldest (whatever it may be) carrier out to pasture first?
