So I have a free eagle from being a beta backer but looks like frontier left it at LHS 3447 at a station 100,000Ls from where I jump Into the system. if I pick up that ship, I have to leave another one there. I really dont want to have to take a nearly 10 min supercruise every time I want to change ships. Is there any way to have a ship transferred somewhere else or do I just always have to leave a ship there and come back to that station and switch?
Ship stored 100,000 Ls from jump into system

Head over there and sell it then go anywhere you want and buy it again.
Buy a sidewinder to take there and swap it out.
Thanks for the responses, guess I'll try that method... Have the developers indicated any plan to allow this in the future? Perhaps paying a shipping company to move your ship to a new location?
I for one appreciate the aspect of leaving a ship behind, and having to think about where I'm going and how I'm going to retrieve it again. It has ended up making a particular system I trade from feel like my true home, where I store my trading ship and have allied status.
Wherever I adventure, even if its weeks later, I always end up coming back home when the funds are running dry to do my trade runs and listen to some podcasts. Like coming back from a long war campaign in foreign territories.

Heres what you do. You go there in your sidewinder, and you sell the free eagle. Then when you have enough, get an adder or hauler and trade rares until you can get a cobra. Then trade rares until you get a Type 6. Once you get there, you'll know what to do. If you fly the eagle, you'll be poor for a long while.
It's a great ship though.

I suggested exactly this in the Suggestion forum. They could make it a piloting contract - you pay a pilot to go get your ship. Probably more flexible though would be once 'Passenger' missions are available to allow YOU to be the passenger - you pay to be taken somewhere so you can fly your spare ship out.
