I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

CIGA, visually that looks very likely. The question then arises is it possible.

Cockpit windows, unlike passenger windows, will be glass. The nose section contains the radar and the instrument panels.

Could that part of the nose section separate from those heavy components and remain buoyant? The nose dielectric might have integral buoyancy. Really one for Boeing.
