Arkship Odyssey with all the "bright and shiny" a bit smudged from all that interstellar smog.

Hey, after installing Acceleration, and the old Spindrift having too many texture issues, I had to get a new set of wings... Tongue

What I'm about to type is all in good fun. Please take no offense! Wink

I'm a huge SciFi fanatic, I faithfully watched Battle Star Galactica when it was on air in the 1970's (not reruns). In the 60's I watched Star Trek, sad to say again no reruns, suffice to say I love SciFi. Ugly is not always a bad thing...but here is the thing...,

Beauty is only skin deep but ugly is to the bone! Cheesy

Neat!

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

If it's anything like Moya from the series Farscape it doesn't need floats! Grin

I'm disappointed Roy. Only one shot? Grin

Albeit, a very nice one.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
