Your favorite in game and sci-fi ship?

In game : Imperial Courier

Ouside : Avatar's ISV Venture Star, because a believable hard SF ship that also looks good deserves some recognition :)

........Sci-Fi: The Liberator from Blakes 7

Amen. Best starship ever. And that's not just my opinion, God thinks so too. We discussed it.

Ingame....sigh.....not spoilt for choice...but the Imperial Clipper gets it on looks. Sadly even that doesn't look as good as the original, which tells you a great deal about this iteration of the Elite series.

Some nice ships out there Commanders!

My in-game favourite is the Python!
Pic in case you forgot how Python looks like:

As for my favourite space ship of all time... That honour goes to CSS Astrid from Ground Control games, IMO the sexiest space ship ever ;).
Video, as pics are few and far between:

In Game? A toss up between the Vulture and the Asp.

Sci-Fi? I go back to a ship that can transport the family, but only needs a single pilot to operate:

The Jupiter 2 from Lost In Space.

The science was flawed, the story was (after the first season) hokey as well as ridiculous but,

I still would LOVE to have the ship.

Ok so favourite in game ship is the Asp, awesome all round ship, looks great, sounds great, can do almost anything. Perfect for a game like ED.

Sci-fi? Ok prepare yourselves, not sure if this has come up yet but:

Best examples, being this:

If you haven't seen Space: Above and beyond, its worth watching the whole show just to get the build up for the episode "The Angriest Angel" pts 1 and 2, towards the end of the season. As shown in the youtube clip in a abbreivated form, that still doesn't do it justice really.

With the build up over some previous episodes and part 1 itself, its one of the best dogfight/storylines on any sci fi show, ever. So damn cool...

Such a great show, and it had so much potential, especially with the Aerotech subplot. It was a crime how much Fox screwed them over, especially when it came to the schedule and moving episodes around.
 
In-Game= I love the imperial clipper

In Sci Fi in general...
Halo - UNSC Spirit of Fire

Halo - UNSC Infinity and the clasic Pelican (look from 4:48 to 5:30)

I enjoy the FDS, Anaconda, Lakon Type 9, and Lakon Type 7 the most in the cosmetic sense, but as for functionality it's the Cobra all the way, best ship in Elite.

I hate all of the imperial Designs, both Saud Kruger and Gutamaya. It's way too flashy, I'd like to see more iron, gritty, industrial looks in this game, not flashy plastic.
 
In game tie between Vulture/Eagle

Sci-Fi Always thought this beast from Event Horizon was a win.

And for all time classic fav.

In-game: None as I haven't flown but 3 of them so far.

Sci-fi: 4648d1338503305t-5th-gen-miata-roadster-ship_large.jpg

Gotta love when this ship enters the space dock and bangs around all over the place. Reminds me of some noobs I saw trying to land! :LOL:
