But hopefully with a bit more armour than your average Citroen 2CV!
Ooops, brain F**T! Yup meant the 2CV..... Man, getting old.

There was a Top Gear episode a few years ago where they pulled a Citroen 2CV across behind a Virgin B747-400 at takeoff power. You might wish to see if it is on YouTube... 
Having said that, though, I've seen 2CVs turned into snowmobiles, boats (there's an entire race series for those!), dragsters, chicken coops, greenhouses... Please Bill, you have to make us a 2CV spaceship!!! Can you imagine seeing that carrier with eight yellow 1950s vintage plastic cars strapped to the side rather than those little Argon runaboutythingywotsits?

LOLOLOL....
That would be hilarious.. It could be a French patrol/assault carrier... :d
I have seen that episode in YouTube. That airliner tossed that small 2CV in the air. The doors and hoods flew off like paper.. Same with the aerodynamic Ford Taurus. Pealed/ripped that hood off like cardboard..
Powerful thrust on those things. They were saying that after so many seconds they have to powerdown, as the temp and turbulance will lift up the tarmac..

Hey Gary,
I havent figured that out yet either.
Too bad no one has done a proper set of tutorials on how devs can make the ships fully added on in download packages.
I gave up trying to figure it out. No one will show you how to do it all. Only bits and pieces. One guy did a huge tutorial on 'half' of the prodess of naming your vehicle in X3, but then it still has parts missing..
Crazy..

Mark answered my question on installing the Ship Pack by Cadius. I kind of figured it would be as he said but I wanted to make sure. Just so I didn't screw up my AMS Mod install and ruin my progress so far. 
Here's his answer in case you haven't checked the thread over there....
"Extract the rar file from the download into your Main TC installation folder. DONE. Select mod from splash screen at TC statup, start TC, Cheat Ships into TC, play TC, have fun.
Second, Not so easy way,
Unpack rar to folder of choice.
As Cadius releases the Ship packs as cat and dat files, you can just put them straight into your mods folder of your TC main installation folder. That is unless you already have something in there. if you don't have this folder you will have to create it first.
If you prefer or you already have something in your mods folder you can put them in as a fake patch. Simply rename them to be the highest number cat and dat and put them in the main folder.
If you go the mods folder way just make sure to select it from the splash screen in mods when you start TC.
However you do it you will have to cheat them into the game at present.
As for the file in 'scripts' (part of the download), copy paste that into the 'scripts' folder of your Main TC directory. The same goes for the one in the 't' folder, it goes in the 't' folder of your Main TC directory."
