I have been asked for photos of the model of INSS MacArthur. The original model I used for the book was destroyed in the earthquake. This one was sent by a reader, and alas, I have forgotten who it was, which is my fault and I regret it. But here is INSS MacArthur or at least a model thereof...
This model was originally the "Explorer ship Leif Ericson" published by a company whose name I have forgotten. I built it in about 1970 and used it for MacArthur in the novels. I suppose I ought to do a top view.
The shuttle bay doors are on top. I should get pictures that make it easier to see when opened and closed. They are very large.
