The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- She was the world's first purpose-built flying aircraft carrier, carrying F9C Sparrowhawk fighter planes, which could be launched and recovered while in flight.
- With an overall length of 785 ft, Akron and her sister ship the USS Macon were among the largest flying objects ever built.
- Although LZ 129 Hindenburg and LZ 130 Graf Zeppelin II were some 18 ft longer and slightly more voluminous, the two German airships were filled with hydrogen, so the two US Navy craft still hold the world record for the largest helium-filled airships.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The USS Akron article was read about 95,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 76 and blocks with 85: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
