Are there any source material for this?

It's a DC2 WE, so looks to be similar to a Landa / Thunderhawk, but it definitely isn't the later.

It has a glavian pilot for a start.

Anything I should look at before delving in with a super-sized valkyrie?

It's mentioned in one of the black library books I believe.

Yup - big enough for a crew of 5 to live in reasonable -albiet cramped- conditions. DC2 seems about right. Great books, by the way. Great first 40K book IMO, although the quality will spoil you.

Dan Abnett books are pretty good mostly IMHO, specially the Inquisition books (Eisenhorn & Ravenor) and Titanicus.
Titanicus is guaranteed to left you longing for an updated Adeptus Titanicus game though :)
Double eagle is a nice read when you're picking up Aeronautica Imperialis too.

I am struggling to get through it myself. It could do with a lot more action. Too much story with characters I find that I cannot relate to. Abnett does not find that 'spark' that makes me really care about the characters.

Try Ciaphas Cain. He's one of the few 40K characters not to take himself seriously. And it's awesome.

Really?? Are you joking? I love to read them. Both Inquisitor series were great and wish they kept going. Also the Ghosts are great!

He cracks me up! Him and Gaunt are my two favorite to read about even if they are opposites.

I am referring to Titanicus, not any others.

Hmmm I guess. It was good still but a little wonky at times for Character build I guess, but still good!

@SK: LOL

I just loved Titanicus. How far into the book did you get ?

I am at pg.368 and desperately hoping that I start reading more action soon. Otherwise I am going to go back to my 'Dagon and Other Macabre Tales'.

I thought Feldenhaus nailed it pretty good:

Here's a pic of my guncutter model. It was quickly painted for one of Moscovian's tournaments but you get the idea... meant to look like the offspring of a blackbird and a thunderhawk.
