There's a whole list of them at this site: http://www.simtours.net/defaultaircraftcarrier.php ;).

Also, my SF Bay Area scenery (Download (http://www.fswaterconfigurator.com/downloads.htm)) includes the Acceleration carrier where the USS Hornet (CV-12) is in Alameda ;D.

Here is a quick procedure to find the carrier near San Diego in free flight:

1) In display settings-> traffic move the slider "Ships and ferries" all the way to the right (100%).
2) Click FREE FLIGHT, choose July 1st, 2009 for date and 06:00 local time. Select North Island NAS (KNZY) for airport and runway 29. You can save the flight at this point if you want.
3) Once you take off from the runway turn left on course 270 and climb to 600 feet. After 40 seconds you will see the carrier 8)
