I was thinking we could buy it and man it...the USS Apolyton. Then we'd have to go out and buy some Skyhawks...

Just buy it and then charge for guided tours. Then use the money to buy some fuel, fighters, a crew, etc. and pretty soon you can conquer a small island!

At 4 million dollars, you'd need to charge 10 bucks per person and hope you get 400,000 people just to break even. This doesn't even take into account maintenance.

The settlers and chieftains will be the mechanics and dish-washers, the Warlords and Princes will do all other menial tasks, the Kings will maintain order and the Emperors and the Deities will do nothing.
