A flight of approx. 100 min with TAP.
On December 7, 1941, the Japanese made a surprise attack on the U.S. Naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The Japanese attack was quick and effective. Of the eight U.S. Navy battleships in the harbor; four were sunk and the other four damaged. Three cruisers, three destroyers and other ships were damaged or sunk. 188 U.S. Navy planes were destroyed, most of them while still on the ground - there just hadn't been time for their crews to get to the airfields, get them ready for flight, and get them up in the air before the Japanese planes turned around and headed back to their aircraft carriers. 2,402 Americans were killed and 1,282 were wounded. This attack wasn't really "during" World War 2 as far as the U.S. was concerned. Although the war had been going on for two years in Europe and longer in Asia, most Americans wanted to stay out of these foreign wars. The U.S. did not enter World War 2 until the Pearl Harbor attack had happened.
Pearl Harbor wasn't a war, it was a surprise attack by the Japanese on the large U.S. Navy facility at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii. It occurred on December 7, 1941, which was a Sunday, and it completely turned around American opinion about entering World War II (which had already been going on for two years in Europe and longer in Asia). Before Pearl Harbor, most Americans had wanted to stay out of what they regarded as a "foreign" war, but once we'd been attacked, we jumped into the fight. President Roosevelt spoke to Congress the next day and asked for a declaration of war, which of course Congress voted for overwhelmingly. The Japanese attack was quick and effective. Of the eight U.S. Navy battleships in the harbor; four were sunk and the other four damaged. Three cruisers, three destroyers and other ships were damaged or sunk. 188 U.S. Navy planes were destroyed, most of them while still on the ground - there just hadn't been time for their crews to get to the airfields, get them ready for flight, and get them up in the air before the Japanese planes turned around and headed back to their aircraft carriers. 2,402 Americans were killed and 1,282 were wounded.
The attack on Pearl Harbor ended around 9:45AM Hawaiian time on December 7, 1941.At About 10:00 A.M. two hours after they first arrived and attacked, the Japanese departed from Pearl Harbor. They started heading north, back to their air-craft carriers. They were going to send a third wave, but since they no longer had the element of suprise on their side, the decided not to.
There is approximately 178 miles between Cold Bay, Alaska and Dutch Harbor, Alaska. A flight would take about 50 miles to complete.
A flight of B17 Flying Fortress's.
Japan preferred more flight deck and less superstructure, so their "islands" (superstructure above the flight deck) were smaller than US superstructures. The Japanese navy even experimented with superstructures that folded away from the flight deck...hanging over the ocean.
Yes and no, there are aircraft carriers in Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Acceleration (add-on) and Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Gold Edition.
Flight duration approx 20hr
A Japanese float plane from a submarine carried out a flight over Sydney Harbour to map out the targets for the three midget submarines which carried out the attack.
The flight time is approx. 3 hours.
65 ft on WWII carriers, except Midway class, where it was lowered to about 50 ft to make the ship less vulnerable to Japanese radar. Modern carriers' flight decks are 80-90 ft above water. I've served as a jet pilot on all three classes, but recall exactly the "on-deck altimeter setting" for the Lexington (WWII) classes.
Approx 5 hours
approx 4 hours
DIFFERENT AIRLINES HAVE DIFFERENT FLIGHT/AIR TIMES........CALL THE CARRIERS. MIMI V
Its approx 2hrs 25 mins
Flight l9, a training squadron of USN (Avenger) torpedo bombers. planes of this type successfully sunk Japanese carriers at the Battle of Midway, so were a combat-ready craft.
