Colonial Vipers

Been watching the original Battlestar Galactica and am amused by the Attitude Indicator in the Vipers. Or any of the space flying for that matter.

With that said, it doesn't take away from *any* of my memories or enjoyment of the series.

Reality suspended quite nicely. I think I want to be a Colonial Warrior for Halloween:

So funny. I've started watching the series on Netflix also. It's pretty good for 1970's.

I love the rivets on the frames holding the windscreens. Do they use rivets on the space shuttle?

 

See picture for Apollo Command Module attitude indicator. It is prominently featured in the movie Apollo 13.

Yes, there are lots of rivets in the space shuttle. The structure is primarily built-up aluminum just like airplanes.

FYI Magnoli makes quality replica clothing. Prop replicas is my other hobby besides cars
