Phisto SobaniiThe salt one was pretty good. I forget what variety I sided with.
As you can see, bit tongue in cheek there.
There is only one Salt you heathen, and it is Celery Salt

LittleBigWolf69Thanks for the swift responses CMDRs, great advice.
I'm going to go sans docking computer and get the practice in, it is fun while I'm not hitting anything... or anyone
Does seem like data/courier runs is the best money making scheme initially, so will follow that path while lightening the ship and upgrading for longer jumps.
What's been very clear in all the forums and videos is the importance of ensuring you can cover the insurance costs in the event of a loss each time you fly, will make sure of that.
Thanks again
You can do two things in early stages:
- Outfit Sidewinder reasonably but don't get rid of your Pulse Lasers. and roam next to Authority Ships and attack their targets when these are shield down.
- Outfit Hauler, get rid of any weaponry, give everything in core Class-D except for FSD Drive which should be the best, Discovery Scanner (expensive, but no limit) and optional shield, then scan around.

Rebecca HailHimalaya Salt is the only true salt. All other salts are heresy.
And that's why I love you Becci.
That, and you're sweet and innocent.
