SWOILZ VC-R B38-5, 998.16Ly from Kano

CMDR R1nzl3r has reported to SWOILZ VC-R B38-5 where he'll await your approach. It's 998.16Ly from Kano, ~53 jumps with a 21.47Ly jump range. The plotted route back to Kano contained 4 unscoopables, 2 of them consecutive.

You may of course get a different route from the route planner.

Fuel rats were too busy for an escort, but maybe a call to SEPP will add to the escort?

See you later, CMDR.

Thanks Cmdr...I am looking forward to parking the sidey on a nice landing pad and heading to the local bar for some suds. ;)

Yay, it was long ago when I was visible on your daily map!
Your are closing in, it will be nice to see you dock. I guess the final record of your journey will be the sheer no of ships escorting you to a safe station. :)

It would be great if one of the 'escort' could live stream so those of us unable to get there (no determination!) can watch it live ... [yesnod]

Thanks Cmdr...I am really looking forward to safely parking on a landing pad...everything before that is going to be a little nerve-wracking :)

I think Erimus can do that, as can Frawd. So it should be possible to watch.

Sorry, unfortunately I have never live-streamed in my life (I can record videos but not stream). It would be great if Erimus could do it but I haven't heard he will be in attendance.

Kano

Hi Frawd, I've asked CMDR Daemon Black to be the 'wing beacon anchor' in Kano. He'll be positioned at the station, hopefully in a wing with you. When you nav-lock him, you'll be pulled in when getting close to the station.

Please note that wings are currently not that stable, so if we wing up before Kano, we risk losing connection to the servers. I think we should try anyway, and we should definitely wing up immediately after entering Kano with you making a dash for the station.

Good news is that CMDR Daemon Black just came from Beagle Point via Jaques Station, and entered the bubble without any incidents.

Very close now:

Thanks to the server outage I barely made it to SWOILZ VC-R B38-5...about 5 minutes left to spare. I did however, have a very brief meet-up with Cmdr R1nzl3r:

Thanks for meeting me there Cmdr and I'll see you again tomorrow: starting around 12.30-13.00 GMT (IGT).
(I also got to wave briefly to Cmdr Traveller_GG in the galmap but then he disappeared...see you tomorrow Cmdr)
