The Mk3 Passenger Module is a plane-styled crew cabin introduced in version 0.90.0. With a capacity of 16 Kerbals, it is the largest of all 3 habitation modules. It lacks command module functionality and requires another pod (other than the Hitchhiker Storage Container or MK2 Crew Cabin) or probe core in order to be controlled.

Usage

  • Transporting Kerbals to and from a space station
  • Crew quarters for spaceplanes and space shuttles
  • Holding rescued Kerbonauts
  • Transporting tourist Kerbals

Product description

At a capacity of 16 Kerbals, the Mk3 Passenger module is known in the Astronaut Complex breakrooms as the "Super Economy" class for spacetravel and allows only carry-on baggage. Any checked or emotional baggage may require one of the Mk3 Cargo Bays.

The inside, as seen in IVA from the back rows, resembles that of a liner airplane, with an aisle in the middle, four pairs of seats on each side, with carry-on baggage bays overhead, and doors on both ends. The module also has two hatches to the outside (bottom and top); by default, the top one is used as exit by kerbals going EVA (from the crew portraits), but any of the four exits may be used manually by clicking on it. The top and bottom hatches have signs "Emergency use only".
