Hmm, not practical but I like it. Kinda like a "Dreadnought" Sovereign.

ppppfffftttt HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh god that's so delightfully ridiculous
Kirk is my fave, but come on...

The thing with the Bring back Kirk video is that the dialogue is so bad ( I know it seems to have been pieced together from audio book and episodes) it sounds like one of the Garfield/ Reeves-Stevens Shatnerverse books.
Sometimes it didn't even make sense. " The answer for me coming here...has never been more clear."

You definitely need to post that... ASAP!!
Personally, I think most of the images found in the Blue Warp Nacelles thread could be used to define "fanboy" - what's more fanboyish than William Shatner playing the port nacelle? This one always makes me crack up, no matter how many times I see it!
I wish I knew where to look. I'm trying to remember who posted it last time I saw it; I think it may have been Squiggy, but I'm not sure.
That manages to be quite fun and astonishingly pathetic at the same time. (Says the guy with the Sombreroprise avatar.)

If it was done as a fun fanvid then it would be okay, but since it appears to be a legitimate campaign then it is the most pathetic thing I have witnessed since I tried to copy JD's naked chicken dance and saw myself in the mirror.

that one does kinda does have an excuse being that is does have to separate into three pieces.
Well, first of all, any shuttle pilot assigned to the ship probably knows better than to do something that assinine. But rest assured, the launch/landing procedure is strictly tractor-beam controlled:
Indeed, the Gods have forsaken us for such a thing to exist.
When I see video like htis or movies like Trekkies, I feel secure that I am much closer to being baseline normal than I tend to give myself credit for.

what about take-off?
What, are you under some impression shuttle pilots are too fucking stupid to steer the damn things when they see a big-ass nacelle in front of them?? I'm sure Starfleet makes sure that at least 90% of their pilots are not legally blind (or are equipped with VISORs if they are).

I think take-off is included under the launch category of "launch/landing procedures"
I just stuck a scale on the model and measured the distance between the shuttle door and the junction of the nacelle pylons (the nacelles themselves are above and below the door level, and are nowhere near being in the way) - 257 feet. Since shuttles aren't launched from a catapult at high speed, and are basically just driven out the garage door like an SUV, I think any pilot not currently having an epileptic fit could manage, even without computer control.

Uh oh...looks like this thread is getting ugly. Not surprised really.
It was ugly from the moment you showed us that abomination in the original post.
