Finally someone completed the sequence of the few existing pieces for that thing. Well done, I think it would have made an interesting twist if they had used it once or twice before switching to the Delta Flyer. Nice touch to add the specific Voyager theme from the explorer's spirit during season 1. :)
There wouldn't have been a need for the Delta Flyer has the Aero Shuttle been used. What a waste. Quite the example of bad decision making for the show.
@@Cliff132NJ They could have used both on different occasions. No need to throw any of these two shuttles away. There was only one bad decision regarding Voyager, to end it after 7 years. They should have bad 10 years, a decade in the wilderness.
man say what u will about voyager they pretty much have the best ship designs in all of starfleet. nice sleek and fast look. this, the delta flyer... voyager...
It would have made MUCH more sense if the delta flyer was an upgrade of the aeroshuttle... so much more sense tham just design a ship from scratch and manufacture it...
I never liked the Aero shuttle or Captain's Yacht. They are too specialized. And if they are destroyed, then you have a big hole on the hull where they shuttle used to dock.
If they had this at their disposal it doesn't make sense they didn't use it dozens of times over the course of their time in the delta quadrant. Could have turned the tide multiple times in combat
I assume they were stripping Aeroshuttle for hard-to-replicate parts for Voyager herself (for instance, bioneural gel packs) and couldn't afford to lose it, so, they've had to resort to easy-to-replace Delta Flyers for everyday use instead.
One argument was the aeroshuttle was never completed so they docked it permanently. Another was that's not the aeroshuttle at all but hull plate to fill in for missing ship
This video isn't genuine, they don't add the music score until after editing the episode. It includes a shot of Kira and Dr Bashir (DS9) in a runabout and the impulse noise is a warp noise but cut short.
I remember something about them not using it because they didn't want to take away the reveal of the captain's yacht in 'Insurrection'. What a waste of time that was.
@@slighter "for some reason" Because the then-upcoming Star Trek: Insurrection had a captain's yacht, so they decided to drop it. Rob Bonchune, who eventually created a full rendering of Voyager's aeroshuttle, added: "In a nutshell, back at Foundation, we got into our heads that it would be cool to see the "captain's yacht" of the Voyager, that being the AeroShuttle. Rick Sternbach gratuitously did a prelim design and I used part of that and designed the ship you see here. Mojo and I did a whole launch sequence, on spec, meaning "free" and then had it shown to Rick Berman. The response: Mr. Berman thought it was nice, but didn't want to trump the captain's yacht launch sequence from the upcoming film Star Trek: Insurrection. As you remember that was a VERY dramatic, epic and cool launch sequence."
@@houstonhelicoptertours1006 Yep, so they wasted the captain's yacht in a terrible movie that served literally no purpose to the plot when they could have just used a shuttlecraft.
Not in any episode. It was cut from the series just prior to the release of Insurrection. Rick Berman decided he didn't want to overshadow the Captain's Yacht scene. So we just got the 'Delta Flyer' later down the road. That's just test footage.
Yeah, it's not meant to be the final version of the shots. These are hastily slapped together to show what a launch sequence would be like as a visual test before they go and make the proper one for the show. They just scrapped the entire idea and thus we never got a fully fleshed out version.

Nicely Done. The Aeroshuttle is one of the few things I would have loved seeing during the series.
Do the people in this Aeroshuttle look like Bashir and Kira to anyone else?
The main section of the Aeroshuttle was modeled after the Danube class runabouts on DS9, so it very well could be a still shot of them.
That's because it is Data and Kira in the test footage.

They should have had the shuttles be destroyed earlier to force them to use the yacht

they chose not to to use this surprised in insrrection

YMMV, for my money, voyager is the dumbest looking ship in star trek canon

you just like it because it looks like a tablespoon

man that final shot. too bad it never was.
It would have made MUCH more sense if the delta flyer was an upgrade of the aeroshuttle... so much more sense tham just design a ship from scratch and manufacture it...
And they had to build TWO! One of them was destroyed!

@@TheBigExclusive I had similar thoughts... The captains yacht is probably hard to replace... don't want to risk it.

Everyone just forgot it.
Supposedly this episode would have come out after the Insurrection movie with it's Captain's Yacht launch.They didn't want to steal it's thunder.
deltaflyer was more advanced with borg tech in it

Love the design.
No sé dónde obtuviste este video, pero está genial
They probably scrapped it for parts, or integrated it permanently into the ship for extra power?
Which episode was the live action footage used from?
None, it was test footage to show what the sequence would be like
WoW! That was a cool looking shit. I wish they would have used it.
It would have made the creation of the Delta Flyer kind of unneccessary, right?
Lol that's data and kira nerys
Would be great if the shuttle went to warp at the end

Billy badass
I can understand why they scrapped it - would have been a pain to dock this thing again.
Not the reason at all.
It’s literally no different than using the shuttle bay or docking an escape pod or freaking landing the ship lol
I remember something about them not using it because they didn't want to take away the reveal of the captain's yacht in 'Insurrection'. What a waste of time that was.
Did they ever use this in the show? I know they had like 111 shuttles on that show.... and 5 million photon torpedoes
Nope, this is the test footage they produced. But for some reason they never used it.

@@partmemjustin how could you overshadow something on the big screen with something from the small screen. That makes no sense.
@@greatsayain
I didn't say the excuse made sense.
I just stated the excuse Berman made.
@@partmemjustin very true
Captain’s Yacht? Was this the only time it was shown in the series?
It was never shown in the series, this is test footage.
👍👍
What episode
Which episode.?
What happen to the Chanel you aren’t posting
Never saw it again
Hey dude do you still posted videos
Sadly, he passed away shortly after this video was posted.
WHAT?!
Its very Star Wars
Thanks for stealing my work
NO
Oh, hi adam :)
@@suSnayC That actually is his work. "Mojo" here was one of the VFX producers _for_ Voyager.
crappy cartoonish graphics. not sure if from a very old video game or hand drawn by an 5yo.
OK chud. Let's see you do better then. :)
@@houstonhelicoptertours1006 Ah the answer of the 5yo.
