The first Angled Deck Carrier was tested in 1953, the USS Antietam. It wasn't until later that the U.S. started making angled deck CV's from scratch.
Britain had the first full production Angled Deck Carrier in 1953 and shared the design with the U.S. that same year for testing. We began converting WWII carriers in 1954-55. That is why the Midway and her sister ships appear to have such a steep angle on the deck as compared with more modern carriers.

So, given the timeline involved, there would be NO angled carriers serving during the Korean Conflict.

Yes, you're right, however I must point out that there weren't any Lerche's or Ta-183's serving in WW2 either :wink:

I think it would make Carrier Ops (particularly with jets) a hell of a lot easier. That's just my opinion though.
