[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] I only lump "WNMHGB" and TOS/TAS together because that's how the footage is used - the ship from the second pilot IS the ship from TOS, despite looking different in every second shot. (Well, the ramscoop rods may not "be" there in TOS, since we can't see them, but there's no way around the nacelle endcaps but to say they are retractable, or keep falling off.) If I had to simply enumerate the different models used in filming the shows, I'd keep these two separate. And I wouldn't include things like Achernar, Endeavor or Tikopai which never even existed in model form. But I'm not doing that. I'm describing a fictional class lineage for the Constitution-related designs, following the lead of Todd's book and the good Captain Mike's graphic. In that lineage, Kirk never flew an Achernar but the graphics for that subclass were on screen when he flew an Enterprise. And his Bonhomme Richard did keep changing the nacelle endcaps and other details in mid-flight. Whether Kirk's colleagues flew Constitution (II)s or Tikopais or Americas or other such "fictional" ships is up to the reader to decide. Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
