Well this sucks. Revisiting the thread and, well:
That was the post which resulted in me getting my name on the infamous 'Strong G' tourist beacon. As I said at the time, the thread was getting a bit long to check every entry when I made my post but I assumed FDev would check before setting up the beacons. I've just noticed that it was actually first suggested by Commander xdemetrios here:

on page five, two days before I suggested it. If possible I'd like the tourist beacon changed to credit him with suggesting it, as although I do quite like knowing that many Commanders have probably cursed my name as they tried to land on it I feel more than a little snide about stealing someone else's thunder.
I still spend about half my exploration time specifically looking for a higher G landable planet
Apologies if already posted - the thread is already getting too long to check so I assume FD will look for duplicate entries as they compile their database.
HD 148937 3 - landable planet with 9.77G.
Huge planet in a system with multiple stars, giving once-in-a-lifetime views. Definitely one for the adventure tourists. It's only about 1,000 LY outside the bubble, easy to reach and well within range for rescue missions should your pilot prove less than competent, although the high gravity makes it notoriously difficult to scrape whatever paste remains off the surface and pour it into a cargo canister for the return journey. So ask yourself... do you feel lucky?
View on approach for landing:
SRV excursions available for a small surcharge. Bring your own packed lunch.
Commander name is my forum name, although I really think credit should go to the first discoverer.
