What I'd really love to see is something akin to the way the Star Furies
launch from Babylon 5.  They're mounted on pivots, and when deploying, a
door opens below them and the Star Furies swing down and shoot straight • out.
That way you don't have all your ships launching from one or two bays, • they
spew forth from all over the ship.  They're returned to their launch
platforms through a typical launch bay though.  I can already see the
technic girders and rubber band spring loaded mechanism that makes this
work, but I've no chance of getting enough pieces together to build a
carrier.  But to dream...

You mean like TIE Fighter launch racks in Star Wars? Check out the LucasArts
game TIE Fighter where every time you go on mission you get to see the TIE's
being pivoted in their racks and dropped out of the Star Destroyer launch
bay. I've been toying with building something like this for a while but I'm
going to wait until I get a few more TIE's.
