The '''MK2 Crew Cabin''' is a crew container similar to the [[PPD-10 Hitchhiker Storage Container]] that can hold 4 [[Kerbal|Kerbals]]. It is Mk2 sized and is meant to be used in spaceplanes. It lacks [[command module]] functionality and requires another pod (other than the [[PPD-10 Hitchhiker Storage Container|Hitchhiker Storage Container]]) or probe core in order to be controlled. It lacks an IVA view so clicking on the crew hatch is needed for the Kerbals to go on an EVA. The Crew Cabin is very fragile, and is not likely to survive crashes, compared to the MK2 Cockpits.

Product description

A Mk2 Profile Compliant, compact and eco-friendly crew transportation module, made from up to 80% recycled aircraft components. C7 Engineers insist that all recycled components were meticulously scrubbed clean before assembly, and take no responsibility for any odd smells that may be detected inside and/or around the unit.

Usage

Like other habitation modules, the Mk2 Crew Cabin increases the capacity of a vessel, allowing it to transport more Kerbals. This can be used to transport Kerbals to and from space stations, act as crew quarters for stations and vessels, and carry tourists or rescued Kerbals from contracts.

The Mk2 Crew Cabin has the same impact tolerance (50 m/s) and heat tolerance (2700K) as the Mk2 cockpits. It has 4 inventory slots, able to hold 400L of cargo. Passengers in the cabin can perform a crew report.

Like other Mk2 parts, the Mk2 Crew Cabin is a lifting surface, providing a small amount of lift.

The cabin has one door on the top. Although its appearance suggests that there should be doors on each end, this is not the case. The top door has handholds that a Kerbal on EVA can grab.
