On some Origin ships, we can see landing gear with wheels. If the new flight model is implemented in the future and atmospheric flight becomes a fully realized option, would there be any possibility of switching to wheeled landing gear, or even cooler ground-effect hover landing systems?

The wheel side is something we want to do. It's not connected to the new flight model in any way. It would be different programmers doing that. But yes, we have a lot of Origin ships. I think most of them have wheels, as well as some other manufacturers. And in fact, Chris was talking to me about this very subject. Maybe he put this question in there, about when can we get proper steering wheels and landing wheels on the Origin ships.
