Great work, Jon!
My favorite remains the i-fighter, though. :)
For what it's worth, I wasn't reminded of the Starfury. Of course, all
winged one or two person spaceships based on jet planes look *somewhat*
similar. ;) But it's the small differences that count, no?
And I have to say, when I first saw Babylon 5, I thought the design totally
ripped off the X-wing. So it's only fair that things come full circle, hehe...
