is most excellent--that answers some things that I’ve been thinking about,

From the two photos that I saw, maybe I’d like to see some of the
old-fashioned 3-way positioning rockets somewhere, just for another echo to
Classic Space. But that’s a minor detail. The model says CS wonderfully.

Firstly, I agree with your comments about the design and also like the modular
containers.
How about a modular container that is fuel tanks plus an auxillary engine? I’m
thinking back to the Space: 1999 Eagle where there was an episode or two with
add-on engines on the Eagle. Seen here:

Somewhere else on the web is pictures of an Eagle with vertical auxillary
engines... Here:

| (...) Jeff, I like that idea! And I'll probably look into it as my next spaceship develops. Looking at those Eagle pictures made me wonder... Has anyone made a Space 1999 Eagle in minifig scale? Might be a fun and challenging project. -best, Wolf (18 years ago, 21-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)
