Why a preserved U.S. carrier is the museum priority

Which U.S. museums or preserved ships would the panel most like to visit?

Preserved aircraft carriers are the priority, with Intrepid named for a return visit and USS Texas as the cohost's choice.

Almost any preserved American aircraft carrier is a priority because the United Kingdom has no equivalent museum ship. Work travel has often taken Dr. Clarke past such vessels without leaving enough time to go aboard. He specifically wants to revisit Intrepid with more knowledge of the ship. His cohost also hopes to see USS Texas when circumstances permit. Their choices reflect the breadth of American ship preservation and the carrier gap in British maritime heritage.
