Yay! Just brought my first Cobra Mk III

it's the best all-rounder in the game, i think. you'll love it.

Head back to Alignak and then Kuma. I have made a little exploring & RES farming trip with Vulture

Nice little ship with 15+ Jump range, 16t for cargo, Advanced Discovery Scanner and Surface scanner on bord. And plenty of firepower too. Maybe I will sell the Cobra when arriving at home in Kuma

just got back to civilisation and sold 12.7mill of cartography data.

now to spec out a vulture or something to go do some combat stuff!

Congrats on the cobra Myrm, onionhead paintjob comes to mind

I just tried purchasing the skins but it didn't work. I logged in with my Frontier account, then it asks me for my Steam login. I enter that (I have £5.00) in my Steam wallet, but the purchase failed to go through. I'll try again now.

Congrats! Loved my Cobra and even consider to rebuy it just for the fun of it. But then, my Freagle might get jealous ...

I'm in the hangar of a space station, and above me I can hear lots of shooting and explosions. I'm scared >.<

Just wait until large pieces of blown up spacecraft start bouncing off your shields

[Myrm]

I'll watch out for those

Trying to figure out how to go straight to private text on the comms menu. I press 2 to get the comms panel open which takes me straight to open text. I can't use the D button to progress in the tabulated options at the top of the menu, as I would in, say, the galaxy map, as it types that letter into the message area. To get to the PM text area I have to press ESC first, then I can tab along to the PM option.

Is there an easier way to get into the PM text panel?

[AndyFM]

if you're just looking to reply to someone that has sent you a message. you can type /r and your message, this will then reply to the last person that sent you a message.

If it's not to reply to someone. Instead of using the quick comms shortcut, you can hold the UI focus key and press up (think default is Left Shift for UI Focus and W for up), this should get you to the comms panel without already being in the text box (i think, at work so can't test it, that's just from memory).
