And hi Sidewinder. Welcome to the forum.

Dans onto it, common in game greeting for Elite Dangerous, and the ship you start with is a Sidewinder (a lot of them are named after snakes) I've been playing Elite since the late 80's/Early 90's Mostly Elite 2 Frontier on the old Amiga 500. I backed the Kickstarted for Dangerous and really enjoy it, I don't get enough time in it to grind up to the bigger ships, but I have a good setup that is enough for dropping in for an hour and killing some pirates.
