Naval Might - 'Enterprise' On Shakedown Cruise The biggest ship afloat nears the end of her shakedown cruise by conducting an around-the-clock test of men and planes. The $440,000,000 ship, the largest ever built, appears to meet every test. Great WS of aircraft carrier at sea. Aircraft, men in naval uniforms. INT Sailors in control room "bridge". Unusual plane taking off flight deck. Flight deck operator giving signal. Men lean on railing, very windy, watch planes taking-off and land. POV down flight deck, wake seen as plane comes in for landing. Aerial of aircraft carrier (the Big E), ships wake.
