(...) Heh. I forgot about that when I wrote this--Australia's only capital ship, NZ's only capital ship, millions of square miles of ocean, and *bump*.

(...) Mmmm. Research is pointing in the same direction. Either HMAS Australia (and let's not talk about the pushing and shoving with the New Zealand which kept her out of Jutland - she may have suffered the same fate as Indefatigable...), or perhaps (...)

  Revision 2 of my 1:400 airport
 
Revision 2 of the main concourse is now complete. (URL) changed from 4-wide to six wide for the sake of scale. I went with bendy-arms for the jetways. Yes, they are round and not rectangular, but I like their modular nature in fitting different size (...) (23 years ago, 28-Aug-01, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Gasaraki 1, any good?
 
The Minbari, and to a lesser extent the Centauri, are suspected of using drives that interact with the Zero Point Field (don't have time to explain the ZPF right now), thus enabling them to use a reactionless drive. Your're wrong about the (...) (23 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Rotational surging ?
 
There is this MOC that I have been working on, a znap/system/technic ferris wheel. I have noticed a curious behaviour... for lack of a better description, I call it rotational surging. The ferris wheel is driven (but not weight supported on) a (...) (23 years ago, 28-Aug-01, to lugnet.build)

  Re: Gasaraki 1, any good?
 
(...) Not quite sure what you mean here. A ship could fly in space with similar flightpaths to how it can fly in an atmosphere. Nothing says that it can't. If you want to execute a smooth sweeping turn like in the atmosphere, you need only have (...) (23 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
