AC-S-92 The AC-S-92 is a medium spaceplane designed by Bill Kerman in conjunction with James Kerman. Jebediah said that the aircraft resembled another aircraft he had heard of, but we dismissed that by changing the design a little bit. The plane Jeb was describing was the Dream Chaser by Sierra Nevada, but there are quite a few differences. The differences include: wider wings comparatively, the AC-S-92 has 4 engines, and it can carry reasonably large external payloads. The AC-S-92 can carry payloads in excess of 3 tons in its cargo bay. Jebediah loves flying this plane as he thinks he's flying down Beggar's Canyon back home! On another note this aircraft is lifted to orbit by standard rocket and has its own fuel supply for on orbit maneuvering. Overall Wernher von Kerman thinks it's a pretty good design.

AC-S-10 Hemera The AC-S-10 nicknamed Hemera can carry up to 7.5 tons to the LKO and 5 to the Mun. Its nickname is from ancient Kreek the goddess of the day. Jebediah says he likes the plane a little bit considering Val was the one who flew it before. Val says she loves it though so that's promising. It comes with its own launcher making it a complete package. During reentry she flies well, just be warned if it comes in to steeply it will get hot. Wernher von Kerman has looked over the design 2 and a half times making it somewhat safe. Overall it flies well with its own fuel supply.

AC-S-3 Thalia Medium Spaceplane launched by rocket to carry small payloads to orbit. It is the bigger brother to the AC-S-0, another aircraft developed by Consentia. This plane can carry two Kerbals to orbit and a small satellite payload. It was developed when Consentia needed a cheap reusable spacecraft to ferry small satellites up to Low Kerbin Orbit. Jebediah decided to help Bill Kerman, our main engineer and mission director, design the aircraft to lift payloads of up to 1 ton into Low Kerbin Orbit. It sports its own engines for on orbit maneuvering and rendezvousing with space stations. It is an all around good vehicle that is reasonably reusable.
