Fleet carrier wing cargo missions

Not at the moment. Mission cargo can't be transferred onto the carrier. It's been reported both as Feedback and as a Bug, so hopefully they could change it at some point before release.
If i understand the way mission cargo and FCs work, especially how they can be exploited to wash cargo prices, guarantee it can't be fixed.
At least, not without a total overhaul of cargo systems.
Well this sucks, Fdevs really don't want us to make money using a FC
I'm not so sure. Your ship's cargo hold can already differentiate mission cargo from other cargo of the same type. It's not too great a leap for the FC cargo hold to apply the same separation and not allow the mission cargo to be bought or sold through the FC's Commodity Market; and only the carrier owner can transfer cargo directly to or from the FC.
Agreed. But a nice addition would be if wing-mates could also transfer their cargo to and from your FC, though I imagine that would be more tricky
So basically what you intend, is to use the FC as a bulk cargo drone ?
With you loading and unloading the cargo manually using your transport ship for collection/delivery between the mission cargo depots.
Given the wear and tear and the fuel cost for the FC is that going to be profitable ?

OK I can see that.
As a side note, I tried stockpiling mined commodities (specifically water and osmium) on my FC and was able to use them to complete mining missions I picked up later. They kept their 'mined' property even after taking them back off the carrier into my ship.
