Update: I've added in doors for the main shuttle bay. They work, just don't do anything stupid with them or change their setting, or Klang will come knocking.

Update:Landing Gear are done. I reused the landing legs I had made for my Voyager build. And instead of using full blocks for the exterior doors, I used armor panels.

ToDo:
add in warp coils
