Hey Jordon

Sometimes this hobby gives me a headache!!!

It was my understanding that all canadian carriers were CT XXXX and that in the beginning of production not all were actually hull marked CT and some were only marked with a T number. But that they would still have been a "CT"

My list does have a bias in that I have tried to only post canadian carriers. Hence the CT designations. IF not ALL Canadian carriers were marked CT as they left the factory, was there a rhyme or reason for the variance?

I thought T designations were normally British and Australian carriers. Jordon could you confirm if the 2 carriers you mention were canadian?

If anyone can shed some light....
(Type slowly please!)

Yes both of those numbers are Canadian built carriers. One of them is mine and the other is about 15min away from me. It is a Cnd built carrier. However they both have only a "T" followed by the number stamped into them. It is my understanding that they were built under a British contract hense the lack of "C"
