[QUOTE]Originally posted by petergunn1701: [QB] Greetings All... I believe this may have been mentioned in a previous post, but I will state my opinion anyway. The Enterprise was originally a Constitution Class Starship. This ship did undergo some upgrading and refits through the years under April, Pike, and Kirk (ala Photonic Topedos...lol). After Kirk's return from the 5-year broohaha...Starfleet decided that it was time to fish or cut bait...they decided to fish! The Enterprise was THE FIRST Connie to undergo a massive overhaul, the likes of which deserved a seperate designation...ENTERPRISE!!! Why? Because there are obviously several older Connies running around doing their thing. It would be silly to consider the "Refit" Enterprise a Connie after the work she received. You may also want to consider that Starfleet was pretty proud of the old girl. Heck!!! The whole fleet adopted the Enterprise insignia as a their own. So it would fit that the fleet, in the same manner, would see fit to bestow a new class designation on the refit starship. However, once all the older Connies are either refit or retired, it makes perfect sense to restore the original designation of Constitution or Constitution II to the class. Now why didn't SF stick with Enterprise as a Class Designation? I have no idea. Maybe it was only temporary anyway. Maybe it came to a vote and some folks hated Jimmy and the Band. Heck, the sub-class makes sence to. In any case, Starship Class, Constitution Class, Enterprise Class...What's the difference? We know what we see when we see it! Right?! Peter [/QB][/QUOTE]
