hey CMDR's,
I currently have a BH Vulture set up and I am currently working towards another ship. This is what I am unsure of. I like BH and Trading but cant decide on the ship I want next. With Assets I currently have 59M. Any advice helps! Thanks in advance.

How long does it take to get Rank 5 with the feds?

I was in the Imperial Clipper for a while doing that role on the way to a Python.
Just keep in mind that the Clipper needs a large landing pad.
I've found that the Clipper if fine for Bounty Hunting but the Vulture is so much more fun in RES/CZ locations, so it's a trade-off.

Which is something else I am concerned about due to I love being like a mosquito on larger ships backs.

I'd probably keep the Vulture for combat, and get a Clipper for trading until you can afford a decent Python, or if you don't have the Empire rank for the Clipper get a Type 7 instead.

I would keep the vulture and look at an asp for trading/mission running you could easily afford a good build and should be able to carry almost a 100t
Or if you want though can go dedicated trader and get the t7 200t cargo and decent jump range.

Here is a 57M proposal for trading and still defendable
http://coriolis.io/outfit/python/04A5D5 ... ulti%2058MCarry 272T 16.33Ly jump range and with the profit you can go up to a more serious spec'd python. Good luck!

Excellent proposal, I should just mention that it's 57 mils if you get it with the 15% discount.

Which is available to anyone, just head for either lembava or diaguandri, it's worth the trip and then some.
