    Perhaps by the year 3302, people will have evolved to no longer grow hair. Hopefully that also means no more nasal or ear hair!

    Re: Elite : Dangerous

    Anyone been doing the metal shipping CG? I can see why people stump up a tenner for a second account, it is about 10 minutes of supercruise to drop off each load. If I could wing up with a ship parked at the destination, AIUI I could wing lock for the last jump and just turn up at the destination station rather than the central star. Starting to think my wife or son are about to get a present whether they want it or not

    Re: Elite : Dangerous

    You can't jump straight to a wing position from a system-to-system jump. You still need to start at the star. Only benefit is you don't need to slow down on approach, just burn at full speed and when in range you automatically drop out without damage. Not a great time saver really.

    Reminds me of something Patrick Stewart said when someone asked him "Wouldn't they have solved boldness by the 24th century?", to which he replied "In the 24th century, they wouldn't care."

    Re: Elite : Dangerous

    I'd read about how to get it out the toaster rack without issues and also had a quick fly with one during a beta so kinda knew what to expect. Haven't scratched the paint yet, but I did manage to nearly drop the shields on a 2G world whilst 'landing'. Note to self, 400t of cargo+downward thrusters was a bad idea...
