Well, FASA fans may call this ‘dressing up a turd’, but it WAS on the redo list…

Actually, I always liked the Wilkerson. But that may just be me...Quote:

It isn't just you. I like Wilkerson, too.
I'll join the chorus. This rocks on toast.
Ditto. I, too, have always loved the Wilkerson, and I don't really know anyone who doesn't like the ship.
I think it should be a little more symmetric from the front view, but hey, that's a minor nit. I think it looks pretty cool as well.

I like the look of the Wilkerson, but I see a big practical problem with the nacelle pylons. They don't seem thick enough to hold the power transfer conduits, and the way they attach to the nacelles makes for a pretty awkward connection between the PTCs and the plasma injectors. The pylons on the Constitution refits and the Miranda are thin, but still at least twice as thick as these, and the PTCs can run much more directly into the nacelle.
How thick should they be? I mean, really.
Large power cables might be all of a foot thick in diameter. How big is an EPS system supposed to be?
Let us not forget, it's all fiction, anyway. If it's at least plausible, let it happen or prove why it isn't plausible..with evidence.
Not a FASA fan?Quote:

Schweet!!
Y'know, I'd kind of wandered away from these boards for a while, so maybe I'm not as familiar with the ins and outs as I used to be. Am I now expected to have an engineering degree to post my opinion, or is this kind of snitty attitude just idiosyncratic of a few posters? If the former, then I'll not darken your door again.Quote:
