I would have to agree with Preacher on the fact that the pilot is seated too far aft.
Additionally, I would disagree with Preacher though when it comes to scaling the pilot up--- I firmly disagree about that, you should assume a 5'9" (1.75 m) to 6' tall (1.82 m) pilot. And keep it within scale. The Excalibur is 32 meters long and that's like 105 feet.
Also. You got the regular model... wouldn't it also be nice to have the ship with landing gears as well? Those are kind of important if you plan on landing . Perhaps copy the model, then carve out a landing gear-well (make sure you have the landing-gear doors visible and stuff and the well) and save it as a different model? That way you got the regular one, and you got the version you'd see landing on the deck. If you're making a movie, it should be believeable. I mean the gears fold into the wells, then the doors close over them. Unless you want to make a model that has moving parts and stuff... that would be cool, but too much work most likely (if you're up to the challenge by all means). Animation would be cool though. Especially if you had the ship making it's approach, as it heads in, you could show the landing gear doors open up and the gears lower into position. Or you could show the gears going up just after takeoff.
