USS NIMITZ CVW-8 1977

I got some info here: http://www.history.navy.mil/branches/org4-6.htm

The pdf took a while to load for me. Not sure if its the website or my lousy verizon dsl.

Better yet, go to the Navy Newsstand's Eye-on-the-Fleet gallery of aircraft carrier pictures

All sorts of shots of the hangar, flight deck, aircraft, personnel, and operations.    Better than the TV show since you don't have to stop the show and look for details.  Plus the pictures are already HIREZ.

I watched the show,  but I really wasn't all that impressed by it.  They spent most of the time & footage showing internal spaces which we don't model.  The rest of the time seemed to be centered on the airdales

The PBS series called Carrier follow the Nimitz on her 2005 deployment to the Gulf. Some neat pictures on the website in the area where you can tour the ship. Here is the link http://www.pbs.org/weta/carrier/ Hope this is helpful. Not sure how much the hanger deck has changed in the last 30 years, but it is something.
