Starting on a full tank, any ship should be able to make the trip. IIRC it's a bit over an hour total.

1 hour 40 mins travel time.
Any ship should make be able to the trip, as long as it starts with a full fuel tank.

Are you sure? It is at least 90 minutes unless you know some magic supercruise trick?
Its been ages, since I did it, but I don't recall it taking over an hour.
Aim at station, throttle to max, go, if you keep throttle in blue though, I could imagine it taking a good bit longer. but that long?
Edit: gonna do the hutton run and see.

The knowledge that you've gone somewhere you won't see again too soon
(Also, the local rare commodity.)Ok Hutton run finished..question asked and answered.
I scooped at the main star when I dropped into the system..full tank.
Looks like it used around 2.5-3tons of fuel..and it took around the 90min mark targetting the station and "being in the blue".
Maybe its quicker just pointing at it and waiting for the SlowDown/overshoot warning..

You get a mug, and some Centauri Gin. And the satisfaction of having done it...
Or a visit from the Fuel Rats if you forget to scoop at Alpha Centauri A.
Doing a full throttle run in my python, so should be comparable results, will report back when done.Ok Hutton run finished..question asked and answered.

Halfway there, currently, reaching top speed, so later part will take less time, but so far around 35 min, so definitely longer then I remember, but maybe that is hindsight, especially when you watch movies alongside it seemed over faster then it really was?
So, seems I'm also arriving at the 90 min mark, Definitely longer then I remember, maybe it was two series episodes rather then one?[/QUOTE
haha.. 2 series episodes of what? nevermind
Thank You again

That doesn't make sense, as full throttle is definitely faster than the blue area at any other time I tried it. I always go full throttle, and blue when getting close (unless the blue area has a period of being at the top of the maximum speed range?).
