    The Aeroshuttle is a embedded auxiliary craft for the Intrepid class. It was never in the series, which makes me think it was supposed to be installed on Tuesday, but Voyager got sent after the Maquis on Monday...

    And don't forget the Waverider that is embedded in Nova-class ships.

    I really wish they'd include the built-in shuttles with the VA+ retrofits, but they already made the Captain's Yacht (from the Sovereign) a Vet reward.

    I am in favor of both of these shuttles coming in-game, as well as the Waverider, a rollbar-less Runabout, a Class 2, a Type 7, a Type 11, and a Federation Mission Scoutship.

    But whats more important, I think, is having something to do with these shuttles other than the Vault and the Delta-Class Crafting Mission.
    • A Shuttle-only PvP Arena.
    • A repeatable underwater mission (use the graphical tech from Fluidic Space) similer to the Delta Flyers mission in The Waters as seen in Thirty Days.
    • A scouting mission in a ship graveyard left over after a major battle in the UFP/Klingon Empire War that utilizes stealth and cover mechanics.
    • A Shuttle Race, preferably competitive PvP, but a PvE version would be acceptable.
    • An aerial chase mission inside an atmosphere.

    Yeah. They screwed up on naming that one. Its the type 8. I want to see the Goddard from Klingon Encounter when Star Trek the Experience was still around.

    Umm.. No.

    The Type 6 and the Type 8 are different shuttles.

    They are similar, yes, but look at the shape of the nacelles.

    Both the SC-4 and the Aero shuttle are highly requested shuttlecraft in their own right. I would not be surprised to see them soon.

    Sure enough. Looks like simple fix to make type 6. Very simple.

    I'd honestly prefer that they add some newly designed shuttles. I'd like to see what CapnLogan can do with something as tiny as a shuttle.

    For the Type 8 and type 6 shuttles, a simple alteration to the basic shuttle already in the game is all that is needed. Allow players to mix and match parts from the two ships when customizing the skin for the free one every character recieves.

    I agree that they should include the Waverider and Aeroshuttle's, and rather then give them to everyone, make them included when you get he Nova and Intrepid classes. I personally would love to see more ship specific items/powers/etc. More ships are cool and all, but I think current current ships special items that only they would typically have, then you make them more desirable for a longer period. As it stands there is very little reason to use any ships after you progress past them, with a few exceptions. They just can't stand up, so unless your are just RP or prefer the look of a specific ship, you never gonna use it again. Adding these special features, such as the Aeroshuttle to Intrepid classes would make people want to go get there old Intrepid, hop in the Aeroshuttle and run the clusters looking or crafting materials.
