Why does the Hornet look the way it does? You have had three directors and a lot of money but nothing to show for it. Only to personal who don't know what " No Step " means!

It can't be renovated. It has to stay in its original condition. The status it has dictates the amount of repair that it can undergo

Probably preserving history

Because it's on loan from the USN they tell the Hornet guy's what they can and can't do. Plus maintaining a Carrier cost lot's of money something the Hornet folks don't have.
