its so great and ego-massaging to
hear comments like this Norman :-),
thx a bunch

in answer to your questions:

the siren is only for in-air which is also why the ship has a horizontal
design (landing gear, ladders @ the doors, etc)

i was thinking that the trans antifreeze piece near the pilot
was sort of a lava lamp to keep his stress level down ;-)

the angled computer sits on a vertical hinge which is on a
flat hinge that you typically use for walls and such 1x2x1
for each 1/2 of the hinge (couldn't find a part #)

took the pics in the course of a day, all pretty much in
daylight.

thx again,
more MOCs soon

Hey Lugnuts! Don't miss Paul's _outstanding_ "flying hospital" -even if your not a spaceguy, have a look! Especially at the interior. To Paul: Great! Great, great, great. After gazing for allmost an hour at all the pictures, I think it's one of the (...) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-01, to lugnet.space)
