I have seen some opened-up pictures of jet engine pods, and now that I think of it, it seems fairly obvious that they do not have nowhere near that much access space (+100%) in relation to the engines overall volume - the empty space inside the jet engine's tube is there for the airflow regardless of maintenance needs, and so does not count as added maintenance access space..
It acts as maintenance space, whether or not that's what it's intended for. The +100% rule is only vaguely relevant to reality -- most cars don't have that much access space either.
Perhaps a case could be made that engines in the pods would not require nearly as much access space as an internal short-occupancy installation?
They require less. It's nowhere near the difference seen in VE2, though. _______________________________________________ GurpsNet-L mailing list <[email protected]> http://mail.sjgames.com/mailman/listinfo/gurpsnet-l
