titleBlockfunction

A sheet's title block, written in-universe: the SPX fleet drawing office, the vehicle as "ISV <name>, <registry>", the maker "SPX", its class, drive and computer in the fleet's own codes (see GLOSSARY), and a status in the future tense: "PLANNED · FIRST FLIGHT 2412" or "IN DEVELOPMENT · FIRST FLIGHT PLANNED 2412", never "in service". A date is a planned date. The operator is FLEET_OPERATOR, just "SPX".
