Can anyone tell me how long the launch tunnels are for viper fighters. I am trying to build the tunnel in lightwave and really could use this information. It would seem silly if it was too short or too long.

Sexy Lady -
I don't know if the actual length was ever determined, but there is a thread in the Artwork forum that might be of some help:

This may help some what, the landing bay 720 feet wide (based on a 6080 ft Galactica)
Half that width is landing deck. That leaves 360 feet for the sides, there are two, each 180 feet wide. Now in that space you have the tube, handleing and prep space for the vipers. Vipers are 28 feet long and 16 feet wide.
Have fun.
