Ley this is a great ship. I really like the slide-open cockpit and arch-insets in the wings. Like Paul, I’m not feeling the P-38 vibe on this one, but it is cool nonetheless. The only aspect of the ship I didn’t like was the drive-dingus that hangs off the bottom. It seemed a little under-greebled and under-protected. Then again, I tend to overgreeble so it might be just about right.
  
Whateverly Labs has produced the PP 1444 X under contract to Improbable Industries. The propulsion system is, unfortunately, classified at this moment. Some of you may note a dearth of those weapons of which you are so fond. I assure you that if you examine the pictures closely, you will note many attachment points for the poison of your choice. Oh, and those little white tubes are simply lasers for clearing the path of asteroids and other ‘space debris’, though I’m sure some of you will have other ideas...but, really, it’s meant for the pursuit of science.

The science of mass desruction...I have the feeling that drive-dingus is actually a wmd, and those ‘clearing’ lasers are meant to clear out more than just asteroids. Its always the ones who talk about peace & love that you have to watch out for.

peace and wmds?
