Notes

Eagle models of 44", 22", 11", and 5.5" were used in filming the special effects sequences of the series.
In an episode of Futurama, an obvious take-off of an Eagle appears. It shoots the last copies of Star Trek (The Original Series) episodes onto a planet, as a way of eliminating the series from human culture.
