had a funky idea for a big mobile base/mothership to make with Create: Aeronautics when it comes out
firstly, it's very... vertical. tall and narrow, somewhat long, in a sort of inverted fin shape. Most of the propulsion and suspension is near the top, with a big set of control surfaces covering the back.
at the very top of it is an airstrip for small planes, featuring a hook-based launcher and catcher mechanism. under that, folded away when their vessels aren't in use, are landing pads for helicopters and VTOLs.
at the bottom (the 'tip' of the 'fin' shape) would be a docking spot for a pair of submersibles, as the lowermost decks would be designed to be able to be submerged.
the command seat for flying the massive thing would be in a sort of bulb at the top and front, below the airstrip and accessed via elevator due to a large balloon being directly behind it.
