Settled on a ship.

I believe that FD have produced a range of really well balanced ships and that's why everyone has their favorite(s), the Cobra and Asp are popular (got one of each ) because they're so versatile.

Focused ships like the Viper and Vulture are superb in their specific role (got one of each as well) but they are limited to that role although the Vulture is as mentioned earlier a very clinical killing machine so I sometimes use the Viper to add a little risk to RES hunting so kudos to FD for getting them so right.

I did have a twinge of guilt selling my Asp for a Python. The Asp is a really great ship and has only one flaw (powerplant location). The rest is great.....an Asp is like the juicy bits of a Cobra mixed with the pulp of a T6- speed, firepower, cargo space.......sigh. I'm getting nostalgic.

Plus, the Asp is the only ship I have owned where I was compelled to buy a skin for.

My ship of choice is the viper. Very capable, top tier speed, and very cheap to replace. I'd rather take risks in a viper than play it safe in a python.
