Panther Clipper? Pit-Con.

Or they could just hire the magic designers that made the Corsair able to hold more than a Clipper. :p

That's because the Clipper is loaded with luxury suites w/hot tubs. An Infinity pool in the concourse with tropical plants and trees. A handball/racketball and zero-G Baseketball courts. The rock-climbing walls, assorted spas and massage booths. Gold-plated fixtures and toilets. I mean this stuff takes up space man.

Guys....look at the thing. You think it's a hauler/combat craft!?
 
No, the big three-four can't. (at the same time)

In the case of the Coriolis blueprint, we can take that as being a scale drawing. The only semi-accurate dimension on that drawing is the mail slot. At 222 meters x 52 meters, these dimensions can be directly compared to known ship sizes. So we can take the mail slot as 222 meters wide.

Type-9 Heavy width 115.3m, Cutter 111 etc... but they can pass with any other ship at the same time. So the "big group" is already guided to bypass "only" with all the M and L ships.

EDIT
And they can with Anaconda/Corvette from the large group, they are slender (62-3m)

Seriously though, I think requiring NPC crew might actually be fun. Granted, maybe not ELEVEN, but yeah... give those NPC crew slots a use for once?
What's fun about it? They don't do anything but fly the SLF.
Agree 100%!

Also I would slap mining lasers on that baby SO fast and make a fortune on every load of Platinum lol.
Just scoop up the whole asteroid
The Coriollis slot is a LOT bigger than you think it is. Two ships can pass through in either direction after all....
For reference, you can fit a thargoid medusa inside the mail slot if you turn it sideways
 
It better not be. If it is, I'll lock them all in with me along with a flipchart of Powerplay ideas and general tweaks, not to mention a whole carosel of slides outlining why the racing paint needs removal via sustained plasma fire. After a whole day of lectures FD will understand the error.
Don't forget to remind them that we still want a cow paint job for the T-9... They'll be begging for mercy after that!
 
Hi All :)

So!...Todays the big day then :D...🤔...Just one question here though, let me get this straight... who's 'Kaytee Khaos'?...Is this David Braben himself or one of his henchmen or perhaps one of his 'Little Elf's' (depending on how you interpret it :sneaky:).
Whoever it is it was mentioned they thought all this speculation was 'funny'?...Ha!...so do I, but a message of caution here to whoever it may concern, I've managed to obtain (can't divulge where from at the moment) a pair of 'CPC's (custard pie cannons) so if ever I see you in one of MY claimed systems your cockpit windshield is gonna be plastered!
I might even throw in a pot of whipped cream too, see if you think that's funny!. Here's an example of the cannon's munitions btw. ... 🍮...there's no defence against these deadly projectiles, 'cept a bucket of warm water and some Flash cleaning fluid (Maybe a drop of Fairy liquid too) might be handy after the event...All Station maintenance / clean up crews in the bubble have stated that they're not touching affected ships with a bargepole with custard pie damage btw. If your ship's been compromised in this way you'll just have to clean it up yourself. 🫡

Okay, on to less serious matters...New Ship Reveal, so as I previously thought, unfortunately it's probably not going to be the Poopy Clipper...sorry, I meant to write Panther Clipper (what d'ya mean I sound as if I'm disappointed by this, nothing of the sort!...now just shut up!)
The picture apparently (as I'm reading the newer reveals / stuff) shows part of the new ship or object in the background or behind the main piccy content supposedly, where?...I can't make out much at all looking at the original OP's post's picture behind those foreground thruster thingy's.( I haven't got eyes like a ruddy hawk)...unless they mean the Scorpion looking SRV?....Oh no!....is that it?...a new type of SRV?....surely not, one of the OP's post states 'Ship' (Thanks' for posting this link up Shadowsnog (y)). So I'm still assuming it's at least 'A' ship. Or is that SRV another obscure clue as some other posters have suggested.?

im surprised nobody here mentioned this retweet

Ah well...only what?...8 more hours to go before the livestream ...😌
