The Penelope class Aerospace Limousine is a civilian smallcraft.

Description[edit]

The Penelope class Aerospace Limousine is a luxury smallcraft, very popular with the Imperial Nobility, who tend to regard it as a sort of utility runabout. Interestingly, most designers would be tempted to automate this craft, allowing for a larger payload and more passengers. However, this misses the point: there is a certain status in having sophont servants. In fact, the Penelope class Aerospace Limousine has space for 2 servants: 1 pilot/chauffer and (potentially) a Steward who can ride in the dual cockpit.
