Hello,
Looks like I'll have to grind out the credits doing trading, for the next 4 days, that I lost when I purchased the Conda.
Been flying with the Conda and not really impressed. On paper it's a good ship and a lot of commanders swear by it, but for me there is simply no "feeeling..." After flying her for awhile I get the urge to get back into Lady Jayne and shoot something.

BTW. Is it better to sell the equipment off the ship and bring it back to original loadout, then sell the ship. Or just sell the ship with current loadout. Or it does not really matter?

Thanks and regards.
Have fun, fly safe. o7

Edit: Found out that it's better to sell of components 1st, then ship. Google to the rescue.

When I recently sold my T-9 I got an extra 15 million CR by selling modules & downgrading first.

I've only flown the Anaconda less than a month and I've had no problems flinging it around a HazRes. And that was coming from a Python. I've since configured the Conda for trade (with a bite) and will rely on the Python (and smaller ships) for my combat rolls.
It's time to give this another go.

Just took LegendFox under my wings, first time he left the barn.
No kinky Painite dropping but some RES hunting in a Wing as nature intended, in Open. I considered participating in the Cristalline Gold Fuel Rats event but just wasn't in the mood for long jump routes.
Was a good time. At the end of the day, after some bounty cashing in and heading out for the next hunt and back again, he hit the Boost button right in front the letterbox -- at a sharp entry angle -- before asking for docking permission --- but he both managed to regain control of the ship before it crashed into the other side's wall and managed even to make it out after some bouncing, bringing home the bacon at second try.
And, of course, I infected him with an Eagle in no time :)

To sum it up, I saw again why I love winging up, and also why I love Bloody Mess. Oversized, yes indeed, but just fun ... and I had my Freagle parked much too far away.
But next time, I will fetch my Imperial Eagle for that.

I just parked my Asp at Fehu in preparation for an early morning trade run.

I'm only 4% away from reaching tycoon rank, so I'm confident that I'll reach that goal tomorrow. :D

This is the last weekend for BB cycling guys, so take advantage of it in the next few days!

Last weekend? Why?

And to post something relevant to the thread; Just running some whatever missions for no reason in the middle of nowhere :)
I play on PC, in the Mobius PVE Eurasia group.
