Lemmings mixed with Federals, what!

As some of you are undoubtedly aware, I have been spending an inordinate amount of time patrolling RES's in various corners of the civilsed galaxy (Sidcup not included), what!

I have noticed a worrying trend amongst pilots of Federally manufactued vessels, what. They will always choose suicidal ramming over prolonged ship engagements at knife fight ranges; what, what?

Now I am as good a sport as the next CMDR but I am now starting to wonder if some sort of mental health check should be required prior to purchasing any vessel of Federal design, what?

Well, the federal assault ship makes a very fine battering ram. As for the others? Idk. Dropship is less maneuverable but could still be solid, gunship I suspect is the same way but I've not really flown one so I'm not sure.

Dropship can be heavily tanked - I think only the covette of the fed ships can be tanked up more

Might just be a good idea to not sell Federal vessels to CMDRS who have their underpants on their head and two pencils up their nose, what?

Failing that; some sort of long hard stare by the salesperson should be undertaken to ascertain ship related suicidal tendencies, what?

In addition, they should be breathalysed to make sure they've not being enjoying some fine Lavian brandy before taking flight, what. I did that once and crashed into a Coriolis Starport.

FGS manuvering rating is a lie! I keep telling people this. Not saying it's up there with FAS, but deffinitely should show higher.

I've never had that problem. For me they just flounder around like a chicken without a head as I (very slowly) kill them.

And I've yet to fight a Corvette. Curious how they'll fare.
