Very cool.  I love the blunt look with the opening clamshell thing at the
front.  Reminds me of the cargo airplanes we use today.

I like the interior of this ship.  The retracting bed is a nice touch.  And
I dig the hatch- I'm a sucker for hatches.  And those engines in the back
looks great with those sloping sides.

Any pictures of the interior cargo area?
