It's both my love and my nemesis.

I'm glad you bent the rules.  I was hoping someone would start stretching
the design of the P-38 beyond the familiar.  Suggestions...  I guess the
underside is the only thing I'd add to.  Maybe a small rocket array under
the wings or some drop tanks, like the actual P38 had?  I don't know what
use drop tanks would be to a space vessel, but whatever.  It just seems too
clean down there.  You studless people, I tell ya...  Anyway, nice
creativity.  You never cease to move in new directions.

Hehe...I was just thinking of a missle rack under there this morning.  Could be
an interesting idea for a redux.

Many thanks for the kudos and suggestions!

Cheers,
