| 1 | This was my [http://www.flickr.com/groups/sci-lug/discuss/72157612015205997/72157612585852088/ entry] into the [http://www.flickr.com/groups/sci-lug/discuss/72157612015205997/ SCI-LUG 2nd Contest: Small Starfighter Build] on flickr. The idea was to build a starfighter that would fit inside a box 14 studs by 14 studs by 5 bricks tall. There have been a huge number of entries; the judges are going to have a time of it. |

| 3 | The 14145Y-B was widely maligned by carrier crews for scraping the paint off the ceilings of the carrier hangar bays. Pilots of smaller craft despised the "yella-jacket" for the scratches it inflicted on their craft when in an adjacent bay. |
|---|
| 4 | But with high maneuverability due to its dual-engine design, and more than double the firepower of most carrier-launched starfighters, the pilots of the 14145Y-B loved the starfighter dearly. On the carrier HMS Grimace, it is said that the pilots chose to repaint the hangar ceilings -- and pay the expense of the paint -- rather than relinquish their precious fighters. After the decisive battle of Urasthmis in which the HMS Grimace lost every starfighter except the 14145Y-Bs, the hangar crews chose to sandblast the paint off the ceiling once and for all. |
