	::~~Peter~~, you are correct. Further, the designation of "heavy" is applied when an aicraft is over a certain weight, regardless of whether it is laden with passengers or cargo. The usage is important to remind controllers to allow extra separation between "heavy" aircraft and other aircraft following, because heavy aircraft generate increased wake turbulence, a significant danger to following aircraft.

	It has already been stated that the exterior design was made intentionally similar to the "Air Force One" design. There is some lettering near the front of the ship. Two words that are fairly easy to read are "Luxury Liner" (or "Liners"). There are some other words that I have never been able to make out. The name of the owner of the ship, perhaps, from which it was chartered by the Colonial government? Knowing this may add to the backstory of the ship.
