[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Why would the scale be off? The ship is about a thousand feet long, as it's supposed to by modern reckoning. And the positioning of main engineering has never been canonically confirmed. Eleven decks for the saucer seems just about within the limits of possibility, if the lower dome counts as a deck - Shane Johnson, apparently going by Probert's original plans, adds a deck between Jeffries' #3 and #4 to make the count come up to the desired number, but then again, the E-refit saucer is slightly differently shaped from the TOS version. In any case, we still lack canonical confirmation of the number of decks, since Jeffries' picture was never shown in an episode AFAIK. Unless we want to count the FJ-derived pictures flashing on the movie-era ship monitors (23 decks, I believe), or the ST5:TFF "information" (78 decks, one per each TOS episode...).
