Holy Frak! I made it out! It took multiple attempts, but I made it out.
Best bet is to touch NOTHING except Nav panel (don't throttle up at all) and set the filter to systems as fast as possible. You may get to select one before the boot, maybe not. Select and set as destination, then throttle up, cross fingers, and get lined up.
Good luck, and I hope they fix this crap soon.
I am definitely out of the LTD trading business until this is resolved.
Congrats, Cmdr! I've been trying that very thing all morning until I just gave up, super frustrated. For me it freezes right after I manage to fumble through filtering systems and just have enough time to engage the FSD. Once I made it to the countdown but never actually got into witch space.
