One of the beauties of owning Active Camera is being able to walk around
your aircraft when its on the ground. A nice option. Here, standing at the nose
of the Sling Shot, you can see what such a shape would look like in reality with
the sleek wild aerodynamic shape.
Here shown is the feature called 'tie down mode' where the pitot tubes are
covered with 'Remove Before Flight' flags and the wheels are chaulked.
These features are activated via the 'Wing Fold' command. Note also the
attached climb ladder. Also note the hybrid engines intake slots. These
actually move in a closing opening fashion in Flight Simulator per throttle
engagement. In reality, this ship would close these intakes off when in Hyper
Mach speeds as well as making transition to space flight via the hybrid design
of the turbine/rocket engines.
