A quick question though. What is 2ls away that you need to do it in normal space that you can't just SC in/out to?
Not trolling just genuinely interested, is there some reason or you just want to do it for the challenge?
I can't answer that question because I think it is one of the very few things that haven't been done so far in ED. It's not glorious, will likely not work and I still have to find a place where it can be done.
But if it works I'll be mighty proud of myself
I think if you turn on your wing beacon, then the tankers will drop in on you, wherever you are. You see this all the time in CZs where you drop in next to your wing, but miles away (erm... Km away) from the actual POI.
How far away can the wingman or -woman be to drop in like that?
