Wow... Series V is gonna have a lot of sets...
I agree it's kinda sad that these things have to be axed, but such is theatre and film. The worst part is when the set gets struck the same might as a final performance of a play. Sheesh.
I'm surprised that some crazy/loony millionaire Trekkie didn't just buy the bridge set off them, or donate it to a museum somewhere. If the Smithsonian has the Enterprise 1701 model....

The warp core is g-gone? WAAAAAAAAH! I loved that thing. It was the coolest set piece. And the bridge, engineering, sickbay ... *sniff* It's so sad. I bet that great rail around the core was scrapped too.
*Sigh* But as was said, such is showbiz. We scrapped the sets for the high school's production of Fiddler on the Roof the day after closing night. Two standing houses, 2 carts, a waterpump, benches, tables, a railroad station ... It was a b*tch to move, but I'll miss it.

I'm still a little upset that there is no more Ops or Promenade!
P.S. I think that the Engineering set for Voyager was one of the best Sets in Trek history... it was VERY well done, I liked how they spaced out the section behind the Warp Core... and how they had a full on level two set... that was nice!
P.P.S. The Warp Core gone, but the left of the set still there... do I smell a Warp Core ejection for the finale...
I wonder if we'll ever get to see the Aerowing Shuttle!?! ------------------ Homer: I'm gonna miss Springfield. This town's been awfully good to us. Bart: No, it hasn't, Dad. That's why we're leaving. Homer: Oh, yeah. [pokes his head out the window] So long, Stinktown!

The Aerowing Shuttle is the captain's yacht-like shuttle attached to the saucer underside of Voyager. It looks like a runabout with wings.

You know, I�d love to see that thing. Unfortunately, I really don�t think we�ll see it in the show. But when we discussed this aerowing-thingy, somebody mentioned that there exists raw footage of the aerowing detaching and flying of. I for one would like to get a hold of a copy of that!

Hmmmm, nice detailed photo... I wonder if it was taken of the original model, or that big one (so I've heard) at the Star Trek Experience?
It does have a Runabout look, the front looks a little more pointed...
Maybe it looks more like that speedboat shuttle?
We can see the RCS thrusters.
What about those white panels... I assume that this would have to have deployable landing gear, because well, the surface looks curved... (for atmospheric reentry?) and it doesn't have those rough 'pads' that the Danube Class runabout had on the bottom of its nacelles...
I assume that the nacelles would be of the Voyager type too, with the red bussards just showing on the top...
I wonder what those grey trapeziums would be... if the landing gear is deployed... they might be a ramp down to the ground, like the BOP from Star Trek IV...
Also, look at that lonely little lifeboat!
Heh, its probably for the people who can't fit in the aerowing shuttle during evac.
Hmmmm, in "Year Of Hell" did we only see the escape pods ejecting, or did we also see the shuttles being used for evacuation? IF there were shuttles used as well, why not the Aerowing... Wouldn't it make sense to use shuttles?? to tow the connected lifeboats? Andrew

Looking at the aerowing sideways, as you can in the schematics in the encyclopedia, it looks like a standard aeroplane. http://w1.314.telia.com/~u31412332/new/shuttle.htm Very streamlined and nice.

Does anyone know if the sickbay set is gone too? If so, that means it won't be used for the Enterprise-E...

Well, that MSD display, doesn't really match with the bottom, what we can see, so I would take the top as much 'fact'...

Just about the Sickbay set... Isn't that another set that had it origins way back from TMP? or Phase II?
