Found another one to cross of my SF list. :)

This is a Demo version of the "Land of the Giant's" Spindrift by the same guy that did the Jupiter 2, Ronnie Pendergraft.

Yes.  It's fast. :)

I have the old Aurora plastic model kit, and it has a blue "pinstripe" .  I may try to add that to the texture.

Also, from "Lost in Space":

Too bad "Jupiter Jr" doesn't work in FSX.  But the Chariot works pretty good.  I might take it for a spin down in the canyon (though it has a tendency to bounce around a bit, like the "Sub Orbital Chevy".  ;)

Man, you find some of the coolest little "crafts" around! I like the 3rd shot, cause it looks like it could be on an alien planet!

Sci-Fi is coolness. ;)

On the third one, that's exactly what I thought.

The Spindrift reminds me of the Flying-Sub from the Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea television series. Curious as to whether it was designed by the same person. Sure looks like it was. ;)
