No Crusader. Interesting
That's the free-fly schedule only, Owl : ) We don't have any Crusader flyable ships in game yet.
Strange selection of ships for the "UEE Expo", by the way... -- Constellation Phoenix and MPUV...?
Let the mans dream!

Also, my days I can play are the days I really don't like the ships lol

Lots of rumor mongering going on right now but we won't know till the 22nd.

My gut tells me no. I think we'll see it at an exhibition and an NPC flyover but that's it.

I'm hoping the vanduul attack the event and the UEE fights em off.
Oh man that would be cool. Don't think they have the AI figured out yet though lol. Vanduul ships will probably crash into each other or fly straight into Baijini Station or something.
So, would that make the Vanduul distant cousins of TEST Squadron for the time being? (until the AI gets figured out)

Flight Ready!


So, maybe Drake is a bit salty that they weren’t formally invited to attend Invictus Launch Week, but that’s not going to stop them from putting on a show. With the launch of Alpha 3.9.1, all existing Cutlass Blue pilots will find that the Cutlass Blue is ready to take to the skies. That’s right – the Cutlass Blue is here!


Don’t currently have a Cutlass Blue? Fear not! Not only will Drake’s latest and greatest become available on May 30th when Drake Interplanetary takes over Fleet Week, but it will also be available to test fly for free as part of the event!
