Description
Inspired by this great work ([link] ) - i've got the feeling, that medical-starships needed fitting shuttlecraft.With a length of approximately 11 meters it's almost 30% longer than the regular F-Type shuttle, is regularly flown by a crew of four (pilot, co-pilot and two medical personnel) and with a evacuation capabillity of up to 6 heavy injured (lying) or 20 light injured (sitting) class-A humanoids. Starfleet medical corps felt the need for this type of shuttlecraft since the hazards of damaged vessels such as leaking reactors, plasma conduits and remains of enemy weapons fire frequently made safe use of the transporter impossible. The shuttlecraft is equipped with a special fast-opening ramp to make the loading and unloading of injured personnel easier.

Brilliant idea & entirely logical (designed by a vulcan, perhapse?). Only one issue - the writing on the back seems a bit too long for the width of the door; I'd either shrink down the font or put the "Caution" in bigger writing centred on the door, with the rest of the phrase in the existing font on a second line.

Thank you. I normally don't do fanart, but I liked the Idea too much to stick to this maxim.
Yeah, the writing on the back... I really did not notice that it did not fit until seeing it online and I am still asking myself how I couldn't have seen it. But I shall do a revised version with working bump-maps and correct fonts.
Anyway. As in-universe designer I'd suppose a starfleet engineer named 'Miller' as it's creator, just to keep the 'Miller-Meteor' joke/reference intact.
