Happens to us all.....

[Arnoldo]

Any FC pilot within 500ly of HD 187592 (1900 | 2487 | 5500)? If so, fancy a quick trip to down and back to rescue an idiot?

Some silly old sod has managed to neutron jump into a system that's about 200Ly away from its nearest neighbour.

Same silly old sod has realised his FC is too far away to jump to his rescue

What a numpty...

Thanks in advance,
Cmdr A

Sounds like a job for the Fuel Rats.

A classic

 

[Arnoldo]

You'd really think some should know better.......

Current stats are 142,975 jumps and 6.73m Lys travelled. Sheesh, that's Andromeda and back plus a chunk of a second visit

Looks like a call to the Rats if nobody is in the region...

Hey ho..

 

[K Olley]

On my way.

 

[K Olley]

I am about 12 carrier jumps away, be there tomorrow.

 

[K Olley]

Bedtime for me, carrier will be in system in the next ten min, post here when you board.

 

[Arnoldo]

Hey Cmdr,

Apologies for the radio silence - this Cmdr retired for the evening

What a hero, thanks for this, I've taken the liberty of jumping aboard and look forward to seeing you at the bar - I believe that I owe you a glass or two of a certain Belgian Pilsner beverage

Just shout when you want to jump; any system a wee bit higher up that has neighbours within 164Ly will be a perfect drop off point.

 

[Arnoldo]

Oooooh, just got a jump warning from Cmdr Kolley's FC. I guess I'm on my way onwards and (most importantly) upwards

I've spent the past wee while selling over a billion in UC data so there's a nice 25% drink for my kind host....

 

[K Olley]

Jumping now, Blae Dryua CB-E d12-0,

Got to walk the mutt

 

[K Olley]

Just got up, set the jump wrote the post forgot to press send button

 

[Arnoldo]

And we're away.... And we've arrived

Thanks Cmdr, this assist greatly appreciated.

 

[Arnoldo]

And I'm dropped at a Neutron; only thing missing is a clean and shine of the windshield

 

[Arnoldo]

Right Cmdr, I'm off to grab a couple more HIPs before parking up for a week (away on business).

Thanks once again for getting me out of my little predicament.

Keep scanning them HIPs and fly safe out there

Keep scanning them HIPs and fly safe out there

Heading back to finish sector 1.

 

[Bigmaec]

Did you drop him off even further away from rescue?

good job.

 

[K Olley]

Did you drop him off even further away from rescue?

No, I was feeling generous, It was a good run, between what I grabbed on the way over and what I bookmarked and returned to over a Billion in Bio put in the bank

Sounds like a job for the Fuel Rats.

The Fuel Rats might organize a fleet carrier rescue for a stranded commander, but another possibility is contacting the Fleet Carrier Owners Club (FCOC), as they are dedicated to this kind of thing as well (also including refueling fleet carriers that are out of fuel, in other words, they act kind of as "the fuel rats for fleet carriers".) Depending on the situation the Rats might refer you to the FCOC directly.

I'd say that if you get stranded, try to contact the FCOC first, as they are the group most dedicated to fleet carrier rescues.
