          Eh, a Farmer is a MiG 19, the picture has a MiG 21 Fishbed..


          Anyway, there are several floating Carrier museums, among them
          USS Intrepid, Lexington, Hornet,

          Intrepid has a Polish MiG 21 on display, but the other aircraft don't seem to be present.

              Looking a bit worse for wear. She is an Essex class fast carrier with quite a history. Several of her sisters also survive as musems. The Hornet, Yorktown, and the Lexington I believe. If CT reads this he can confirm that the hornet is actually across the SF bay in Alameda.
              Meh.

Visit those websites before you ask any more silly questions. Then change your avatar. I am familiar with his work,and it has no place on this site.
