Name[]

Since this was moved due to a LCARS panel having this name in it, can we get a screenshot of that? - Archduk 3 08:06, August 14, 2020 (UTC)

Added. -- Sulfur (talk) 10:23, August 14, 2020 (UTC)

looks kind of "8A"-ish to me, which would explain the similarities of having the Type 8 on the Cerritos' MSD. --Alan (talk) 11:11, August 14, 2020 (UTC)

Well I added my own file since I didn't see this, with cropping and everything! I'm really not sure that's a 6 there either. With the Type 4, Type 6, and Type 8 all pretty much being the same body with minor adjustments, it could be a 6 or 8 to me, but Type 9 seems right out, at least from a "I'm pretty sure they knew what they were doing with this" perspective. - Archduk 3 17:24, August 15, 2020 (UTC)

In a video [1] by Trekyards about this shuttle, we see another look at the text. This screencap is from later in the episode. Trekyards video timecode: 0:46.--Memphis77 (talk) 04:51, August 16, 2020 (UTC)

I've added that screenshot (from the episode) to here. Also fixed your YT call. :) -- Sulfur (talk) 05:18, August 16, 2020 (UTC)

So I'm guessing by the sudden deletion of "Yosemite type shuttle", of which we are certain, that we suddenly firm on this name then, because I'm still not convinced it's a "6", even after a bit of image manipulation it comes back too symmetrical to be that from what I can see. --Alan (talk) 20:08, August 20, 2020 (UTC)

If we want a redirect cause we're not sure then it would have to be "Type 8A shuttlecraft" instead of the use-a-named-thing-for-the-unnamed-type, since either way there is a name now. The second image is much more 6ish to me than anything else, though I did have to put my glasses on for it. - Archduk 3 22:18, August 20, 2020 (UTC)

Titan shuttles are slightly different[]

Regarding the Titan's shuttles as this class, they had different nacelles, that's why I wasn't so quick to classify them as the same.–Gvsualan (talk) 01:42, 20 August 2021 (UTC)

I thought we accepted small differences like that here. -- UncertainError (talk) 01:44, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
