Is this pic missing the bow control room, or is it just so low it gets buried between some sort of dorsal ridges? I believe Eaves did two versions of this design, one with just the aft bridge and one with the added bow bridge, and the latter was used in the movie.
When Rua'fo breaks out of the holodeck, it seems he only has to take a few steps along the corridor and up a short flight of stairs to reach a room with big forward-facing windows and a simple console without a chair. I guess this was supposed to be the bow bridge (there aren't other forward windows than those on the two bridges, after all, and we didn't see the big expanse of the hull below the windows so this was probably the bow instead of the stern bridge).
The austerity of equipment inside suggests the bow bridge is just an "auxiliary steering cabin" for intricate docking maneuvers, and not permanently manned.

So in fact the holoship was held by the tractor beam from *astern*, and Rua'fo was looking out of the (apparently nonexistent) stern windows of the aft bridge?

Anybody see an email address for this asshole? I wish to have words with him regarding using my diagrams without permission.

I posted this reply in the "Norway" thread, but apparently no one read it, so I'm posting it here:
Although Captain Cabac has a very informative site, he also has a very bad habit of posting material on it without crediting where it came from.
And if you don't want to see the pop-up ads on his site (or any site for that matter), you can turn your javascript off. I've had mine off for years and I've never seen a pop-up ad since.

Well, the Sabre, Steamrunner and Norway diags are. He's also nicked a load of Adam's schematics, and who knows what else? When I have a more reliable connection I'd like to see whether any of Black Knight's oics are there. . .
