Gentlemen,
For your approval, the PCS-S.P.I.F.F. or Static Proton Induction Flux Flyer.
She is based off the familiar design shared with PCSlabs by the Grand Admiral.
It’s main purpose is helping PCSlabs learn new building techniques and get us
back into production (ok ok, I’m just tryin to build something to get me outta
the anti-buildin’ funk I’m in). She’s armed with 2 Quixburst Frap Cannons and
has 2 hard points on the sides for science or attack payloads. Her twin PIF
drives are a recent advancement in engine technology at PCSlabs with their small
size and long range. These were tested on the HOPLAB platform early this year.
Please review and respond. We should have some field action pictures from the
testing labs soon. Thanks again to the Grand Admiral for the specifications, we
hope he can upgrade his SPIFFcraft soon, so as to beat us on our next race
through the moonbase.

| (...) Admiral, this is one frikin' cool craft. I really like the tailfins and the entire craft is quite smooth. The only fault is the landing gear, which looks sadly stiff. (URL) (21 years ago, 30-Sep-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Very nice. Very schmoove. Like the engine design, although I agree about the landing gear. The original spiff landing gear was great. I've noticed that all of us seem to be in anti-building lulls... -JHK (21 years ago, 1-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Word that comes to mind: SPIFFY. Blast, I should have know there was a meaning behind that...hmm...does NEATO convey the same umphf? (...) Ah ha...well maybe this placed acronym was merely a scam to permit usage of that neen transblue dish. (...) (21 years ago, 1-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Ah like it! For all the other reasons mentioned, but mostly for those PCS trademark white curves snotted in below the slopes....very bulbous-licious. Cheers, -G (21 years ago, 1-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
