It was great to see so many pilots there again tonight :) Well done everyone on your epic journey!

We need to round off Distant Worlds 3302 with a toast - a drink at Jaques bar (if he ever turns up!)

Congratulations

I hear the FGE arrived today and I just want to extend my hearty congrats and my deepest gratitude for making it happen. Well done CMDR, we will publicise it and get the whole fleet celebrating this week, while you guys spend a week partying at Beagle Point.

Thanks for tending the fleet, and looking after everyone. We really really appreciate it.

It was such an honour and pleasure to work with you and look forward to many joint exploits in the future.

Will be in touch soon about your upcoming week at BP

Flyby

Hi there,

Thanks again for the flyby - it was quite something! I am writing it up now for the ongoing log and wondered if you could do me a favour? Can you PM me the names of the pilots who attended the flyby? I want to be able to mention them in the log.

Safe travels, Commander - and welcome to Beagle Point 2!

Great videos Kj - and good to hear that the game finally allowed you to land (without your ship mysteriously sinking into the ground or continuing with a ghost rider as we saw quite some times yesterday…)

A note on the flyby - technically it was not a flyby of Darwins Legacy (camp 23), but a flyby of Felix Macedonia in the Beagle Point 2 transpolar expedition :)

And for those of you thinking that the flyby could have been tighter formation, lower to the ground and faster speed… you are absolutely right! But please consider that we are doing this 65k LY from nearest docking facility with some ships very low on hull integrity after months of exploration and crossing a galaxy ;)

Thank you very much Corbin, I'm really pleased that you liked the videos. :) I'm just sorry that I missed the start of your speech before jumping to Beagle Point. :(

Thank you for confirming the actual location of the fly-by; I've updated the YouTube descriptions and headers in my op to reflect. ;)

No z in my Cmdr name, tis an s ;)

Aaaand apologies for being a very poor formation flyer.....I was petrified of nudging whomever was in front but didn't realise I'd fallen so far back. The video calls it....I suck....and I made Wishblend/Daggermark late too....sorry.

You will notice that there will be a few chances to practice some formation flying ;)

Thanks. Didn't see your post before hitting the sack so missed this mornings flights :(
I did spend 10 mins working out my video capture and some bindings though so hopefully I can get more shots next time ;)

But...I won't make the pre closing practice at 3.30am cos, well, 3.30am....on a work day :D
Open to something 10 hours earlier though (7am IGT) :D

I wasn't actually a part of the fleet or Distant Worlds but you guys let me tag along anyway. It was such an honour to arrive at Beagle Point with you and it made my arrival much more interesting and satisfying than it otherwise would have been. Thank you for that. :)
