I feel like making a "what does this button do" joke. But that begs the question "witch one?"

And to think that in Eve, those buttons (and many more, since one can assume spaceships are a tad more complicated to fly than a shuttle) are now in our characters' brains :p

Looks Minmatar.  Caldari shuttle just has buttons for "Go" and "Stop."  Could be a Gallente shuttle, however, if all that is just bling, and the buttons don't really do anything.

Naaah, can't be Gallente. Not enough crome and polish to be a Gallente ride, and the buttons seem to have useful function in mind.

Unless ofc anything but 'start' and 'stop' is all the extra content and special services...

Looking over these pictures, it took me ages to figure out where the access hatches were.

It's a pity they'll probably not be opening the shuttles to interior viewing - if there's one thing the shuttles weren't built for, it is having hundreds of people tread through its interior every single day.

I like the implications of Gallentians being punched in the face by walking up to a Minmatar as they so freely use another person's culture as a fad.
