I heard that some Chinese casino owner has built a full scale replica of a US aircraft carrier and turned it into a casino. Anyone know any details?

Actually they are not currently building aircraft carriers of their own....just studying the possibilities.
They are most likely going to add more of the casino carriers. They already have 4 of them, Russian ships such as the Kirov and the Kiev.
Yup, a copy Nimitz is sitting in a lake now. Strange huh?
Here it is:

You propose the plane service they offered from Russia and have been refitting for years? i think of it grew to become into the Varyag. whilst they ultimately get the element seaworthy (they have been engaged on it for years) odds are it is going to spend most of the time tied as much as a pier like the chinese language nuclear subs that throughout no way pass to sea longer that an afternoon. And judging from the overall performance of the Peoples Liberation military army pilots I heavily doubt China could have the potential to field a very useful service any time quickly. As for chinese language plane...they have a protracted thank you to pass previously they compair to western designs (or high quality).
