Very nice work, Bram. I've always enjoyed spaceships that can fold and bend
when landing/taking off. I can see where your landing gears might slip on
smooth surfaces. And the cockpit reminds me of the Minbari fighters from
Babylon 5. I always found it interesting that they laid down on their stomachs
to pilot a ship instead of the typical sitting down. Anyway, keep up the great
work.
