I question the value of the reflex curves on the topside. They rob interior volume — notice how close that guy's knuckles are to the porthole. aerohead found little benefit to the reflexed extension when he took Baby Template to the Darko wind tunnel.



Here's a shape that I can scale from single-seater bellytank to motorhome sized. Much better interior volume, ingress/egress and sightlines.
