You can’t fool me. That’s an H type Nubian yacht from star wars.
What’s a Nubian?
Shut the fuck up! Now Vader, he’s a spiritual brother, with the force and all that shit. Then this cracker Skywalker gets his hands on a lightsaber, and the boy decides he’s goinna run the fucking universe - gets a whole Klan of whites together, and they’re gonna bust up Vader’s 'hood - the Death Star.

You don’t need any aeronautical experience to fly it, but you need a 28” waist.
