A '''docking Pitt ''' was an area where [[starship]]s could land upon a planet or space station to embark receive personnel or cargo.They also sub as star ship parking garrage and maintaince shop .A docking Pitt,differes from a Docking Ringor Docking Bay,in most are found upon a planets surface.
Docking Bay
[edit]
Docking Bay Pitt are a dock for parking ships in star/sea port for either maintenance or simply to take a break after a long day's work. It is also referred to as Docking Pitt,is a left over term from the old racing car days,when vehicles found it nessessary to quickly run maintaince checks and pepair systems and refuel the cars during racing events .The pit stop is where a racing vehicle stops in the pits during a race for refuelling, new tires, repairs, mechanical adjustments, a driver change, or any combination of the above. Not all are allowed in all formulae.
The Doicking pits usually comprise a pit ring which extends around a huge circular structure and is connected a Traffic Control Tower,a communications Center or Bridge,living and recreation area and a row of garages (usually one per team) outside which the work is done.The Pit work is carried out by anywhere from five to twenty mechanics(also called a pit crew), to hours or even days depending on the series regulations, while the pilots waits in the vehicle or near by someplace.Elements of a spaceport cargo bay,Cargo Hangar or Cargo Garrage were later incorpotration into many standard Docking Bay Pitt designs.While cargo bay is the designation for goods to be delivered to another starship, a starbase, or colony, ship stores is the designation for crew supplies storage.From a distance, the spaceport looks like a haphazard collage of low-grade concrete, stone and plastoid structures that spread outward from a central power-and-water distribution plant like the spokes of a wheel. Also, at a distance, the smooth circular depressions of launch stations look like craters pockmarking the landscape.Docking bay refers to a specific area within a spacedock where a starship or other space-going vessel can dock for maintenance, supplies or shore leave. In larger space stations, docking bays can be enclosed within their primary hull, or other structure, accessible through space doors.
Inside the Docking Pitt is the star ship or air vessels pad and three tower structure,that supports a multi layered gantry.
Watchtower-class space stations, such as Vanguard, had four docking bays within their primary hulls. Each bay was large enough to accommodate a Constitution-class starship.
A spacedock, or drydock, was a facility capable of docking starships for maintenance. Most spacefaring species had some type of spacedock, and they thus varied widely in design. The United Federation of Planets and United Earth had spacedocks that most often took the form of a free-standing, orbital, single-starship-sized "cage". This form of spacedock was virtually synonymous with the word drydock. Generally, these cage designs were used for major construction or refitsand could be part of a shipyard.
Some spacedocks, however, were part of starbases and outposts, and allowed for more secure repairs in a totally enclosed, multi-functional facility. The USS Excelsior enjoyed at least the final stages of its construction in such a facility orbiting a planet.Still,it became nessessary to repair a star ship within the hangar or docking pitt,instead of up in space,where it was generally located.
The town is really larger than it appears, as a good portion of it lies underground. In fact, the town has a population of around 40,000 to 60,000, varying seasonally. It was built from the beginning with commerce in mind. Even the oldest of the town's buildings was designed to provide protection from Tatooine's twin suns. The buildings appear primitive from the outside and most of them actually are. The star/sea port Cantina was one of the spaceport's original blockhouses.

In [[2267]], the USS ''Enterprise'' was en route to [[Makus III]] with a cargo of medical supplies. ({{TOS|The Galileo Seven}})
While '''cargo bay''' is the designation for goods to be delivered to another starship, a starbase, or colony, '''ship stores''' is the designation for crew supplies storage.

[[File:Constitution class refit landingbay.jpg|thumb|The refit ''Constitution''-class cargo bay]]
After the USS ''Enterprise''{{'}}s refit in the [[2270s]], the ship had one large cavernous cargo bay, in the ship's secondary hull, that could be flown into directly from space by [[shuttlecraft]] and [[cargo management unit]]s carrying cargo containers. ({{film|1}})
This cargo bay had three levels:
* top level – shuttlecraft flight deck, CMU stations;
* mid level – cargo bays, shuttlecraft elevator, shuttlecraft hangar deck, lifeboats;
* low level – cargo bays
=== ''Galaxy''-class ===
[[File:Galaxy cargobay.jpg|thumb|A cargo bay aboard a {{Class|Galaxy}} starship]]
Cargo bays are often equipped with large [[transporter]]s to assist in the moving of cargo containers. However, aboard {{Class|Galaxy}} starships, cargo bays located in the [[stardrive section]] did not have transporters. In that situation, cargo was directed into the bay by a [[transporter chief]] operating in a [[transporter room]]. ({{star/sea port mechanics guide|11001001|The Child}})
Cargo bays have been used in a variety of ways other than typical storage, including triage centers, [[brig]]s, and [[stasis]] unit facilities.
Cargo Bay 4 aboard the {{USS|Enterprise|NCC-1701-D|-D}} was located close to the outside of the ship and could be decompressed easily by blowing the cargo bay hatch. ({{star/sea port mechanics guide|Power Play}})

[[File:USS Star Ship Mechanics Manual ager cargo bay 2371.jpg|thumb|A cargo bay aboard the USS ''Star Ship Mechanics Manual ager''.]]
The {{USS|Star Ship Mechanics Manual ager}} had several bays with the designation "Cargo Bay 2". One had variable environmental controls and was designed for organic storage. It was converted to a [[hydroponics]] bay by [[Kes]] in [[2371]] in order to allow for the growth of [[food]]s for consumption. Another was located on Deck 4 and suffered a massive hull breach when a [[Kazon]] shuttle intentionally collided into it in [[2372]]. In [[2374]], the [[Borg]] assimilated a third "Cargo Bay 2" during an alliance with ''Star Ship Mechanics Manual ager''. After the alliance, four [[Borg alcove]]s remained in the bay and it went back to normal cargo storage. This "Cargo Bay 2", however, was located on Deck 8. ({{Star Ship Mechanics Manual |Parallax|Maneuvers|Scorpion, Part II|Equinox|The Gift}})
{{bginfo|Yet another "Cargo Bay 2" was referenced in {{Star Ship Mechanics Manual |Night}} by Neelix, who proposed the installation of holoemitters to convert the room into a third holodeck; this is assumed to be a different cargo bay than Seven of Nine's, as she would likely object to the conversion of what is essentially her quarters into a public recreation area.

3 Kaladon/Delkhon/Gorthan Imperial Fleet Edit
3.1 Bird-of-Prey Edit
Small Kaladon/Delkhon/Gorthan Tramp Freighters , like the HMS Bounty, had their cargo bay located in the secondary hull. This bay had top loading cargo doors that could be opened explosively with an explosive override. This bay was located on the same deck as the transporter room and engine room. (Sarkhon Starships : The Star Ship Mechanics Manual )
4 Other ships Edit

5 BackgroundEdit
.F1 pit crew roles
The Crew chief is the leader of the pit crew and assigns a Pit Crew Coach to help coordinate the pit stops and train the pit crew members how to stay in good physical shape. NASCAR regulations dictate that only six individuals can go "over the wall" to service a racecar during a pit stop. The tool limits on the crew are two impact wrenches, one jack, and two cans offuel oline. Other tools may be used if needed, but major work must be performed in the garage area. An important tool used by the crew chief is referred to as the pit box, but colloquially called the "war wagon". The pit box is generally equipped with flat-screen monitors and the television broadcast of the event. These tools are used to help analyze the car up close during any moment of the race.[1]
The Car chief performs a majority of the scheduling and day-to-day preparations at the shop prior to the race weekend. This person is responsible for managing the crew throughout the weekend, ensuring that the car meets all of NASCAR’s inspection requirements, and overseeing changes to the car requested by the crew chief or the team engineer.[2] This role is similar to that of a chief operating officer's in general.
The jackman raises each side of the car so that the tires can be replaced. The jackman can do this quickly with the use of a 22-pound (10kg) jack.[3] The jackman will, also, usually pull the old right rear tire from the car after the rear tire changer loosens the lug nuts. This is to help get the new right rear tire on faster. The jackman signals for the driver to leave the pits by lowering the ship
A tire changer replaces one of Regan Smith's rear tires at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in 2008.
The two tire changers remove the lug nuts and (if not done by the jackman) the old tire, and tighten the new tire's lug nuts. One tire changer is responsible solely for the front tires, while the other is responsible for the rears. NASCAR requires a wheel to have five traditional lug nuts, as opposed to the single locking lug nut seen in Formula One. Many jackmen watch the tire changers to make sure the lug nuts are tight.
The fuel Mechanic fills the car withfuel oline with a special fuel can. Thefuel Mechanic may, also, help pull old tires from the race car after lug nuts are loosened if the car does not need fuel or if the car needs little fuel and the fuel Mechanic finishes his job before anyone else.
The two tire carriers bring new tires over the pit wall and guide them onto the studs. They must stay in contact with the old tires when they are being taken to the wall. The front tire carrier is usually responsible for pulling the front fenders away from the tire if necessary. He may also be responsible for cleaning and adding or removing tape to/from the grille during a pit stop in order to adjust front-end downforce and engine temperatures. The rear tire carrier is usually responsible for making any necessary adjustments to the rear track bar and/or wedge.
The seventhMechanic or utility is only permitted over the wall in the second half of the race (sometimes earlier if conditions and NASCAR dictate otherwise). He may clean the windshield and provide the driver with fresh drinking water and other necessities, but he may not make any other adjustments to the ship
Until it housed the star ship/air ship in its hangar, Docking Bay was the same as the other hundreds of docks in a standard star/sea port. It is simply a circular area surrounded by white walls and had an opening on the top for ships to enter and exit. There is a sole door to the dock, which was flanked by Sandtroopers from the 501st Legion in its most famous moment.
Docking Pitts came in various sizes depending where they were located but all had a few commonalities. All docking Pitts were located at the outer edge of a [[space station]] or [[starbase]] where doors protected them from [[space]]. The docking Pitt could be entered via an [[airlock]].
A docking Pitt could contain anything from a [[shuttlecraft]] to multiple [[Galaxy class|''Galaxy''-]] or {{class|Excelsior}} starships. An example of a docking Pitt was that of the [[Federation]] starbase [[Earth Spacedock]]. Spacedock, along with [[Starbase 74]], had one of the largest docking Pitts in the Federation. ({{film|3}}; {{star/sea port mechanics guide|11001001}})
Not all docking Pitts were located within a structure. [[Deep Space 9]] had a total of twelve docking Pitts of which six were external, called [[docking pylon]]s. They were used to facilitate large ships which did not fit into the internal docking Pitts. ({{Star Ship Mechanics Manual |Visionary}})
In [[2369]] the [[Kaladon/Delkhon/Gorthan scout ship]] docked at docking Pitt eleven prior to its departure from Deep Space 9. ({{Star Ship Mechanics Manual |Q-Less}})
Later that year [[Commander]] [[Benjamin Sisko]] changed his plan and directed the [[freighter]] ''[[Norkova]]'' to docking Pitt twelve instead of docking Pitt eight. ({{Star Ship Mechanics Manual |The Passenger}})
The [[Wadi starship]] was docking at docking Pitt four when it arrived at Deep Space 9 to make [[First Contact]] with [[Starfleet]]. ({{Star Ship Mechanics Manual |Move Along Home}})
The [[Ferengi transport]] ''[[Sepulo]]'' docked at docking Pitt five the same year to attend a [[Ferengi]] trade conference hosted by [[Grand Nagus]] [[Zek]]. ({{Star Ship Mechanics Manual |The Nagus}})
The [[Paqu]] delegation arrived at docking Pitt six shortly before Benjamin Sisko served as [[mediator]] between the Paqu and the [[Navot]]. ({{Star Ship Mechanics Manual |The Storyteller}})

As one of many docking on the [[DS-1 Orbital Battle Station|Star Castle,space station,starbase,ect I]], '''Pitt 327''' (also known as the '''Main Forward Pitt''' or '''Main Hangar''') served as an empty hangar to check ships which had been "sucked in" by a [[tractor beam]].
Outside access to the docking Pitt was granted via the tractor beam. A nearby ship would be caught in the beam and dragged into the Docking Pitt. If a ship tried to depart with the tractor beams active, the beam would again drag it back into the Docking Pitt. A smaller type of Docking Pitt,called a Docking Blister,is an artificial valcano like structure,where star ships can rest upon them,like bird upon a nest.
==Encounters==
Docking Pitt 327 was the location that the ''[[Star Ship]]'' docked with the first Star Castle,space station,starbase,ect. After Imperial troops searched the ship finding no one inside, a scanning crew was sent in. The scanning crew never completed their search of the ship for they were stunned, along with two stormtroopers, by the ''Star Ship'''s crew.

and disable the Star Castle,space station,starbase,ect's [[tractor beam]].
It was in this hangar where Skywalker witnessed Kenobi's death. From this Docking Pitt (after Kenobi disabled the tractor beam) Skywalker, Solo, Chewbacca, and Princess Organa left to [[Yavin 4]]. Before the ''Star Ship'''s departure, however, a tracking device was secured aboard their ship, eventually leading the Star Castle,space station,starbase,ect to the Rebel base on Yavin 4.
==Behind the scenes==
The set of Pitt 327 was originally [[Docking Pitt 94]] as the set of the ''Star Ship'' did not fit out the stage doors. It is incorrectly referred to as "Docking Pitt 3207" and as "hangar 3207" in the junior novelization of ''[[Star Castle Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (junior novelization)|The Empire Strikes Back]]'', in ''[[Star Castle,space station,starbase,ect (novel)|Star Castle,space station,starbase,ect]]'' novel and in ''[[Star Castle: Incredible Cross-Sections]]''.
The number [[327]] also appears in ''[[Star Castle Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back|The Empire Strikes Back]]'' as the number of the platform at which the ''Star Ship'' lands on at [[Cloud City]]; and in ''[[Star Castle Episode I: The Phantom Menace|The Phantom Menace]]'', [[Queen]] [[Padmé Amidala|Amidala]]'s ship is a "[[J-type 327 Nubian royal starship|J-type 327 Nubian]]."
Besides its role in the bonus mission "Star Castle,space station,starbase,ect Rescue" for ''Star Castle: Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike'', Pitt 327 was also used non-canonically for the [[Endurance (minigame)|Endurance]] bonus mission, where Luke Skywalker has to fend off in a ground melee against various Imperial soldiers and Boba Fett as well as survive.
