List of appropriate names for ships
Here is a list of Greek Gods (which I believe is what most Terran ship classes are named after) for use in MODs:
  • Eros
  • Hera
  • Persephone
  • Dionysos
  • Demeter
  • Boreas
  • Zephir
  • Notus
  • Eurus
  • Iris
  • Aether
  • Hebe
  • Eris
  • Eos
  • Hespera
  • Glaucus
  • Hemera
  • Iacchus
  • Iapetus
  • Indiges
  • Ino
  • Iolaus
  • Ismenius
  • Ixion

  • Thetis
  • Zelus

Short list of Roman Gods:
  • Juno
  • Vesta

  • Bacchus
  • Ceres
  • Inuus (I think that's used in StarGate - the first Goa'uld)
  • Faunus
  • Discordia
  • Aurora
  • Janus
  • Camenae

I haven't included all the greek gods. I've only listed the ones that aren't used in FS2, not really used in Astronomy, and ones that are fairly easy to pronounce.

I hope this reference is helpful.

Those seeker mines are killers. The best way to kill them I found is to get them going after you then fly away backwards and shoot the closest ones, and you're talking to the guy who simultaneously ambushed two Maas Mega-Freighter convoys and won
