Thunderwing.

It looks like a Thunderwing.

[Whatshtisthis]

Take a random word.

Rearrange the letters till you get something resembling a name.

[Umlüx]

name it... paul

[Tommygun]

Flipper.

I have my next airplane's name now.

[Monkeh]

Best name ever!

[sidewinder147]

From the screenshot I see it already has a name: "Shuttle"

Maybe you could be more elaborate and call it "The Shuttle".

Or if you're adventurous, call it "Space Shuttle".

Simple yet unique.

[Camelotking524]

Invictus. Its latin for unconquerable.

[sidewinder147]

Thanks For Everyone's Suggestions.

A lot of Great Ideas, some funny.

I'm going to Name it Pathfinder.

makes it sound like a space shuttle.

Now can anyone think of a way to get it to say it on the side.

I would modify Textures but I have others that use the same parts so I cant do that or they will all be pathfinder.

[Tiberion]

There is a mod that lets you place a flag "decal" anywhere on a part, and then it loads the mission flag you select for the launch and displays it on your ship. So you'd only need to make a flag with "Pathfinder" on it

I don't recall the mod's name though.

I can Always use more shuttles.

In fact this is what happened today on its first flight

On landing the main engines hit the ground and the rear right landing gear exploded.

[SuperBigD60]

I've got a couple of Shuttles I haven't bothered to name yet, if the OP doesn't mind sharing.

[Katve]

Eagle, Hawk or Serenity fits to almost any craft. I use them mostly.

[User Unrelated]

come up with an acronym that has as many K's in it as possible that sounds like something.

I've started naming ships that way.

My small kethane scanning probe around the mun that I launched yesterday is EKKS mI (extra-kerrestrial kethane scanner, the m is for Mun), and the first real manned craft that I have been re-using for munar encounters (for goo science!) has been dubbed KOEV I (Kerbal Outerspace Exploration Vehicle)

I plan on continuing this nomenclature, and adding indicies when updates occur as more science is unlocked.

The first orbital station I put up will be called KOOO I (kerbin orbital operations outpost)

I personally go for some random 4-digit number and a nickname derived from industrial history. 5-digits for those heavy shuttles.

Example- the K-3460 Mogul OSS (Orbital Supply Shuttle). Cabana Corp's signature spaceplane capable of both crew-transport and payload delivery. For heavier stuff, there's the K-10000 Loewy (as in Reymond Loewy) which is currently undergoing redesign...

On second thought, don't name your ship after cuss words that are banned on the forum.

[Rhyunix]

I'd go for something bold like:

The Nebula leaf

The Galaxy Eater

Comic Glider

[Tank Buddy]

Space Shuttle Failure.

[RedKosmos]

"Who Farted?"
