One hangar has suffered major damage, with about a third of its roof destroyed. Among the planes in the area are about seventeen PBY patrol planes, many with ailerons and flaps missing. USS Curtiss (AV-4) is docked at right. Part of the Pearl Harbor Navy Yard is at the bottom of the image, with USS Shaw (DD-373) in the partially sunken floating drydock YFD-2 in the lower center.
