I'll try and join in on Sunday. If you are planning on getting Mugs and Gin (who wouldn't!) there are a couple of things to remember.
No large pads. That doesn't mean you can't do the run in a large ship, you just can't land. Smaller ships can ferry Mugs and Gin to you and you can collect them.
There is a restriction on the number of Mugs and Gin you can collect. The only way to get a full cargo is to get someone to fill you up (unles you're in a smaller ship of course)
Hutton doesn't sell Collector limpets. If you're going to manually scoop to fill your Cutter bring them or prepare for a very long night!
Listening to Hutton Radio while making the flight is pretty much compulsory and is shouting "For the Mug! (and/or Gin!) to all and sundry. http://http://huttonorbital.com/radio.aspx
Lastly, having fun is definitely compulsory.

I just want to verify - the Anaconda is the preferred ship to bring for photo ops and such, since this is all about the poor fella who wanted the free one, yes? I can come back any time in a smaller ship for mugs, so that's not a problem.

Good question. I'm personally taking my T6 because I decommissioned my Conda when I got the Cutter.

Also if planning to join the after party to the attacked stations, a medium might be less frustrating; the rescue ships only have a single large pad, so whilst the sight of heavies queueing is genuinely cool, I guess it might wear thin?

I'm pretty sure a Conda is not mandatory. I think they just want to do a cool photo with Condas. I'll be switching over to my DBX after event to go Pleiades, as I already have my rescue ships docked there.

I go with my Conda and hope that some generous CMDR will drop some mugs for me to scoop ;)
I also will bring fuel and repair limpets,just in case...

I sure hope that a Beluga will not spoil the motif. I can't stand the Anaconda.

Sounds like a lot of fun. I'm just too far out to make it back in time. Have fun CMDR's!

You could join someone in multicrew. I've been offering my spare seat (PS4) to friends who are deep in the black and thus missing the excitement with burning stations. I'll even let trusted friends take my SLF out for a spin. If I don't know you, then I'll tie you to the chair - no touching anything! ;)

Argh little bit late, just read about it from the FDev FB Post, but would love to join!

Edit: Also a perfect chance to ready made my good ol T6 in honor of the poor Cmdr who had to realise "The Conda`s a lie" :)

Well, sadly, I guess I'll miss it. I thought it sounded like it might be sort of fun, so I started to head back to the bubble. Unfortunately, the time this is being done is fairly prohibitive for me, but I thought I could still make it. And then at the last minute my family calls me and informs me that by the way, I need to rush to get ready because they're doing their Christmas thing extra early this year (which means I stayed up late jumping back to the bubble in a hurry for nothing since they didn't bother to tell me anything in advance.) Kind of frustrating really. Oh well.

See the ****Y? It stands for baboy. That's pig in tagalog. Unfortunately it is censored because 'babo' is in Korean. I did not know that. Obscure or what?

Just in case anyone thinks I'm rude...

Yes, I was the "odd duck" in the mix, but it allowed me to dock and distribute mugs (most of which expired due to lack of interest, LOL).

I don't think Hutton Orbital has ever been so BUSY!
