Default Concept model Exeter Shuttle

I got the drawing and material list from this forum under concept models.
Having a background in aeronautics and physics of flying I contoured the fuselage since because I use rubberbands to hold the half tubes (Air intakes) and they were tighter than needed. Even though, it turned out, it should increase the flight characteristics of the model.
Also, I choose to make it a NASA model, since I have a mutual friend of one of my friends that is retired from NASA and is an Aeronomical Engineer. He was my encouragement to go the NASA Route.
