Considering the thrust that is available to the fighters in FT/MT ect.
streamlining is not important.	 Give me a big enough engine an I can
fly a brick. (Remember the F-4)   
    One turn to climb to orbit, operations, and then one turn to land
is sufficient to maintain the 'feel' of the function without adding
unnecessary complexity to the game.

Just a thought.
