    thanks to the impressive amount of time you spent to make out your thoughts about my good ol' shuttle ! aprechiated deeply !

    of course fairings do make more sense. the reason i used heatshields instead was to ensure "noob-proof" reentry (which i considered to be one by myself back then XD ). i think in version 1.04 the heating due reentry was even different from 1.05 or later.

    I am very intrigued by your design though. I'm used to using rapiers for SSTOs, I've never really considered making an all rocket one. The TWR on this thing means it could have very good cross range capability inside a planetary system, such as potentially landing on Tylo or Eve. I might have to try out such a design of my own.

     

    i never used rapiers for ssto's - why go hard when there's an easy way ;)

     I think he at least deserves an Honorable Mention, if for nothing else than the idea of sticking heat shields on the nose of a space plane. That's just brilliant!

    hehe - it was for aesthetic reasons. i disliked all the other nosecone-variants i went through. especially the black/white one doesnt seem to fit very well i think.
