Sometimes we go back to a Sidewinder, and not for reasons we'd like. :D

Nice pic, H.M.

I haven't tried any Fed ships yet. Maybe next beta. ;)
It's time to give this another go.

That is easily fixed, just outfit it with an additional fuel tank, that is what I do when I need to go some longer distances. :)

We laugh but there is something to be said for that little ship. As much as we want to get out of that thing as soon as possible, if you spend a bunch of time in it you realize its not as bad as we make it out to be.

I cleared my save in August to start over after playing since January. The first time, I skipped the Cobra. This time around I spent a lot of time in it and still keep it around. It is a fabulous ship. My other is the Asp and Python. I skipped the Asp last time as well but this time I spent a lot of time in it and keep it around as well. The Python is wonderful. Maybe not as good as it used to be since they introduced all the new ships but I still love it.

I have, I did. I just feel due to the size I shouldn't need to it should already have it.

I have just purchased a FDL to try combat in. And wow after a Python this is so much more fun. I can see me liking this lots!

Best time to do it, Roger. You'll find the three of most different handling - and most certainly like the Assault the best ;)
