Operational Environment.

It`s only a small point.

A thought struck me though. Sky 1/Skydiver/Interceptors would several
things in common. All operate in VERY
hostile environments, whereby all the craft have to be water tight/leak
proof, they must have similar operational criteria, similar training, etc.

So where's the problem? We already have real-world solutions for
all these issues.

With CGI, we can make up stuff, hopefully it'll be based on the
real world. Remember, the UFO movie will have to be believable, no
gimmicks like unlimited energy sources or characters that come
back from the dead.

Has anyone come up with a good title yet?

Why? Every Gerry Anderson show I've seen has all of these things worked
into the premise!

In fact just about every SF show has unlimited energy sources and characters
that come back from the dead.

Babylon 5, Star Trek, BSG, Lost In Space etc. B5 did these well, Star Trek
made you ignore it, BSG eh... bleah!
