When it begins

[starkestrel]

In Squadron 42 you will be in a mil-spec F7A!!

Well, sure, but I can't run my Space Escort business out of a one-seater...

Playing Squadron 42 in my Super Hornet in hopes of earning enough to buy an Aurora for the fleet.

Just saying, you won't be in a super hornet during the campaign that's all. Pledge ships aren't usable at all in campaign as far as I'm aware.

EDIT: What kind of escort?

My master plan got buried in the X UP thread in subreddit:

My X.

My hangar currently sports just the one Hornet F7C, but I'm thinking of upgrading to a Super Hornet and throwing in a 315p for good measure. If I do get the 315p, I'll attach a few scaled Aurora models to the inner wing mounts and call it an Aurora stealth craft. Disguises count, right?

Welcome starkestrel!

Is there any advantage besides lighter mass that a F7C has over the Super Hornet?

[–]starkestrel 1 point 19 days ago

Not having to deal with my gunner throwing up into his flight mask after a night of wretched drinking sounds like a plus to me.

I'm planning on using the second seat for an escort service, though. Not the VIP kind. The escort kind. It's amazing how much an asteroid miner will pay for five minutes of fun.

Why use a Hornet instead of a cargo ship, you ask? Overcompensating.

I heard that the Super Hornet will be used during the campaign. I might be wrong.

99% Correct!

Super Hornet => Super Souped Version of F7C (Civilian Edition)
Military Hornet => F7A

1. Make a character
2. Join the Navy to see the universe and destroy as much of it as possible
3. Figure out how to go AWOL with a F7A
4. Space Hookers and Space Blow
5. Dishonorable Discharge from the Navy
6. Wonder the universe on my own dime and destroy as much as possible.
