Way cool. I happen to like that scale, and love the layout.

I have a question and two observations.

So the launch deck is on level 3, while the landing deck is on level 2?

Observations: 1) If the launch deck is on level 3, why not extend the length of the tubes, and make the bay on the inside of the pods as opposed to the outside. This keeps more with the amount of time we see Vipers in the tubes during launch (not by much, but some). 2) Primary fuel and prep is probably done in bays beside the tubes, and some form of conveyer moves those Vipers into line with the tubes. This is seen in the backdrop to the launch bay set.

Overall, it rocks.
