Default Re: Colonial Fleets Battlestar Stats

I looked at the schematic of the interior of the landing bay and it's a great place to start, but it doesn't take into account the actual set where the launch tube epenings are square on.

Might I sugest that the tube stars off straight but then curves to a diagonal?

The problem is with the show that things rarely match, on the set it looks like the launch rail has guifers along it that match the the indentations on the belly of the Viper, while in the VFX sequence the viper is on a separate trolley that runs on top of the rail.

How long is the launch tube anyway?
