New Rigging Fixture Used on USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74)

Newport News Shipbuilding employees working to remove the propellers on USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) for the ship’s refueling and complex overhaul had some help in the form of a new rigging fixture. Use of the fixture, which made the complex job safer and more efficient, was made possible thanks to a partnership with shipbuilders at Norfolk Naval Shipyard. Watch this video to see the fixture in action.
