This is a weekly posting with GURPS vehicles (and the like) to the
GURPSnet mailing list. I grant the permission for all non-commercial
redistribution of my work, but I would like to know if you put it on
a website or the like. The files at omeyer.gmxhome.de are down until
I fix the automatic PDF generation, which should be one of these
days - see sourceforge.net/projects/gurpsml

Launch, Spaceships Version v1.0 (TL11^)
Design 2011 by Kenneth Peters, color text 2011 by Onno Meyer
The Launch is a lifeboat and utility shuttle for larger interstellar
craft. She has room for a pilot and 26 passengers, or a similar amount
of cargo.
The hull is a rounded cylinder with aerodynamic control surfaces and
engine blisters in the rear. The Launch has one pilot seat in the nose
and nine rows of seats. The quadruple flight computers are capable of
automated landings under most conditions, even if they lack the
flexibility of a human pilot.
It has a streamlined 30-ton (SM +5) hull about 45 feet long.
