Tooling around in a Pelican...
Posted By: Mid7night <pakrat961@yahoo.com>Date: 5/12/07 4:03 a.m.


I recorded some videos of me flying the Pelican around inside and around a Marathon-class cruiser today. The exterior of the cruiser model was extracted by the The Forerunner (thanks!), but I had to model what I thought the interior would look like. I tried to take some clues from the inside of the PoA, and went from there.

Video 1: Launching from the cruiser bay, fly around and land back inside the bay, about 4 minutes

Video 2: Launching from the cruiser bay, fly down to island airport and land by tower, 1:30 minutes

In the videos the cruiser is hovering about 2100 feet above Catalina island....now I know that a cruiser of that size wouldn't really ever even be in the atmosphere, but it's just easier to fly down here!!

There are two functional docking clamps for the Pelican, and two open parking-platforms for some Longswords. As you will see in the videos, it ain't easy to park one of those things! Oh yeah, and BTW...if you thought that cruiser looked big from the OUTSIDE...just wait. Keep in mind the following size comparison: One Longsword is bigger than a Boeing 747 (there is room for SE7EN of them inside the Marathon-class cruiser...plus Pelicans!)

Anyway, I hope y'all like what I've done so far. Enjoy the vids, and let me know what you think, please!
