Using Eagle to size a Francesco Caracciolo carrier conversion

Is HMS Eagle a useful size reference for converting a Francesco Caracciolo-class hull into an aircraft carrier?

Yes. Eagle is a much better starting reference than Bearn, though it remains only a quick design benchmark.

HMS Eagle is a practical first comparison for a Francesco Caracciolo-class carrier conversion and a better quick reference than Bearn. Alternate carrier designs work best when they begin with a hull of comparable scale and lineage before adding more detailed assumptions.
