Your Shuttle stuff

[lunatio_gordin]

No cover over the SSMEs?

 

[shuttle_rtf]

You're on the right track by saying SSMEs

 

[shuttle_rtf]

Columbia and SCA (Wood).

[lunatio_gordin]

is there four? they're at least upside down in formation...

 

[shuttle_rtf]

I'll give you that. Two SSMEs at the top, centre at the bottom. I remember asking SG once about that...if there was ever a point of the design phase that had it in that formation, and I believe he said no.<br /><br />

The 747 looks more like a 707.<br /><br />Wayne <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p>"1) Give no quarter; 2) Take no prisoners; 3) Sink everything."  Admiral Jackie Fisher</p> </div>

 

[lunatio_gordin]

Yeah, that's what i was trying to say. But i couldn't quite tell from that angle if there was an extra one or not...

 

[strandedonearth]

Ok, that is a weird detail... almost like the 2-engine orbiters in Moonraker. The other thing I noticed is that the SCA on both the bronze and color models have the regular tail, without the extra vertical fins on the tips of the horizontal stabilizer.

Here's a toy I made up for the young fellow. Its made of wood. How do you like the under carriage? <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p> </p><p>----------------------------------------------------------------- </p><p>Wanna see this site looking like the old SDC uplink?</p><p>Go here to see how: <strong>SDC Eye saver </strong>  </p> </div>

No mate, check out the first picture in this thread, you should be able to make out the tail fins (I just cut them off in the close up photo <img src="/images/icons/frown.gif" /> )

 

[shuttle_rtf]

So cool! Will you adopt me! <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /><br /><br />Even has the tear in the thermal blanket like Discovery! <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" />

 

[strandedonearth]

Ah, ok, I see that now, but still, not on that crazy-engined bronze one <img src="/images/icons/laugh.gif" />

 

[shuttle_rtf]

Yeah, the Bronze one doesn't have any...maybe that's why it's flying at an angle <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" />

 

[teije]

The fact that the orbiter is attached to the SCA in only 1 position looks rather strange to me. <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" />

 

[shuttle_rtf]

Yep, and they aren't even bronze in real life...might as well bin it <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" />

I think the guy in the middle is Ed Case...

 

[lunatio_gordin]

Hey, i had a shuttle pen like that.<br />but the SRBs broke off...

 

[SpaceKiwi]

For authenticity, SRB sep is probably nominal functioning of that pen. <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em><font size="2" color="#ff0000">Who is this superhero?  Henry, the mild-mannered janitor ... could be!</font></em></p><p><em><font size="2">-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</font></em></p><p><font size="5">Bring Back The Black!</font></p> </div>
