Whatever...

Atleast it was a miniature effect (too early for CGI) not a stupid ugly looking CGI sub as seen in seaQuest DSV (1993)...but that is the only good thing I can say about the MFA sub!

It was actually a more realistic design than the Seaview. It matched devlopments in deep submersible vehicles and prodded them ahead a bit. The Seaview was fantasy, starting with the windows and the basic shape of the bow. It's sci-fi, so it doesn't really matter, in the end.

Fortunately, Ah keep mah feathers numbered for just such an emergency!
