Thanks Jonathan.  I wanted to do something multi-part, with each part
looking good independantly.  So I built the pods first, and the bomb
magazine after the fact.  Then it was just a matter of getting them to look
good together.

And, technically, the cockpits aren't horizontal.  That's one thing I wanted
to show in this craft - there is no up or down in space.  Landings are a
different matter tho - unstrapping and falling out is the quickest way out
of this pod. :-)
