Hey Gil. I've been here and there for a bit but I figure its not too late
to reply on this. Interesting ship. While I don't like this as much as some
of your other recent creations, it's still a very cool ship. The over all
shape is very unique. Oddly though, my favorite part of it is probably the
cockpit. Something about the way it closes up I really like.
The concept of the ship is great too. NOF ships, large or small or very
interesting to me. I actually had plans for a solar sail alpha ship but
couldn't for the life of me figure out how that would make a good fighter
;-)
-Jon (whose next capital ship very well may be powered by a distant super
laser)

| Hey Jon, Many thanks for the kudos! I would have to agree that it is not my favorite ship aesthetically, but for some reason it's really grown on me. There is something about it's simplicity that is nostaligic for me....recalls the days of watching (...) (23 years ago, 19-Apr-02, to lugnet.space)
