With all the pods being built, I had to make one too.  It had to be different
though, and of course had to have stowable landing gear.  It actually took a

it too.  So take a look at the PHOD and let me know what you think!

(...) I'm not a big fan of cockpits that involve lying down on your stomach, but this one is pretty cool. One of the best uses of the steering wheel piece that I've ever seen - in fact, the whole landing gear assembly is pretty dang cool. I love how (...) (22 years ago, 3-Aug-02, to lugnet.space)

That's what I call thinking outside the pod! Brillant spin by changing the orientation....looks much meaner this way. Amazing stuff. Cheers, -G (...) (22 years ago, 4-Aug-02, to lugnet.space)
  Re: New MOC: PHOD (and a modification)
 
I love it, Bram! This is really cool- I've always liked round cocpits. The landing gear is great too. What a great MOC! I've made my own- modified. It can fit 2 people inside, along with a slightly different landing mechanism. Front view: (URL) (...) (22 years ago, 6-Aug-02, to lugnet.space)

COOOL! I have not seen any pods at all up until now, and I like it! Nice and compact the way I like things, yet with cool little deatails like retracting landing gear. Disaster Master-- (...) (22 years ago, 6-Aug-02, to lugnet.space)
