What's the gravity rating? It looks like it's only 1.5something, but it also looks like it's at 3 as well.

Just read that the guy he crashed into received severe hull damage - not cool.

Yes he had to head back for repairs, to be frank I'm glad this happened at waypoint 5 rather than later, ever since waypoint 1 and an srv trying to land on a conda (resulting in significantly more damage to the conda than expected), I have been concerned with people showing off and acting stupid.

At least now this sort off showing off is officially banned in the dw private group.

Well, justice was done since he ended up as a fireball. :)

On a side note, shame the landed ship didn't really react. I mean given the impact had the landing Asp do a somersault like a gymnastic hamster on heat, the one on the ground should have moved a little! In reality it should have been shoved up into the air as well. But game... :D

Wow that was a spectacular screw up.
Would be great if when multicrew comes they make it so your SRV is a sort of escape pod that can be picked up by other ships allowing you to have the option to survive your ship destruction and carry on on board anothers ship.
