Since I don�t get to see these episodes, anyone got screencaps of the ships?

"auxiliary thrusters"? No... They're "impulse thrusters". Powerful stuff. Basically just small impulse vents, from what it looks like.

Where are they at? Are you talking about the ones on Deck 1 or the ones attached to the warp nacelle pylons?

I was hoping those would be the escape pod hatches on the sides of the Delta Flyer since I can't find any other place for them to be.

Two things.

Could the Flyer be big enough to have escape pods?

I went to the Trekbbs this morning, to see what they thought of the episode, and almost no one liked it. I was surprised by that, since I liked it so much, but I thoughyt maybe it was me, but then I come here, and you guys liked it as much as I did. I think I'll stay out of there Voyager forum.

As I recall, the Flyer's escape pod was less a pod than a Harry-shaped box, and not something that required any great amount of space to store.

Not-necessarily-vague spoilers in this post... Stop reading if you don't want them...

Okay, I've finally seen it today... One question, Tom... What made you sit up so abruptly about the DF w/ "Just Married" scrawled on the back and some sort of storage media trailing behind?

The Delta Flyer escape pod was seen in "Good Shepard", and since they mention 'pods' there's more than one. Which seems reasonable since a DF escape pod is only big enough for 1 person.

Well, that episode did kick some serious butt. I always love getting new special FX shots too.

Tim: Because, in a pseudo-Sixth Sense kinda way, it made the entire preceeding scene take on a whole different meaning. (now getting to hardly-vague-$-at-all) It was, at first glance, a scene of the two of them celebrating their engagement. Only afterwards did I realize that B'elanna had, in fact, done better than say yes to Tom, and that we'd had an Off-Camera wedding, which in itself is just such a cool idea that it boggles the mind.

Besides, you have to agree that the cans were cool.

The funny thing is, they think you hate them back, when in fact, you just couldn't be bothered to care. Now in Ireland, it's a different story. At least we had the common decency to wait until the English invaded before we started hating them. I guess the Canadians are hating you in advance..."

Sternbach has said, via his newsgroup, that the impulse engine thingies are indeed where the escape pod thingies were before. As to where the escape pod thingies are now, well, good question.

I just like to say thingies.

Very vague spoilers, but if you're this far down the page.

Did anyone else thing the alien "cruisers" like the race coordinator showed up in (not in the race) looked somewhat Akira-like in profile?

I didn't notice that... I did think that Tora Ziyal the First's ship was vaguely Y-wing-like... :-)

Tom: Oh, okay. The wedding rings they were wearing tipped me off, but I guess you just didn't see that...

I know such things as continuity in Braga-run Trek is considered heresy, but Paris was expelled? Was this ever mentioned before? Also, if he was expelled how could he of made officer when he didn't even graduate from the Academy?

According to my Paris personnel profile I have that he majored in astrophysics and went to Marseilles, France for physical training during his second semester.
