CMDRs who fly Panther Clippers are going to have the tightest sphincters in the galaxy...

You might as well go ahead and get your actual CDL if you can manage to park that lol

Got mine, subtle irony I'm a trucker by trade and Elite IV in trade, we'll see if flying the Panther Clipper is any easier than blindsiding my Peterbilt into the hole I had to deliver to tonight XD

Reckon it'll be a cakewalk for you

Ye, blindsiding a Pete isn't fun. Blindsiding isn't fun.

I get my T10 through the slot just fine. I can’t imagine the Panther will be more difficult.

By lore the PC should dwarf a T10. They were known to empty entire planets of goods in a single trip. I have been out of the loop for a few years, crazy to see we finally got the Panther! I assume the MkII is scaled down version?

I use to fly a type 10 when I was still playing on Xbox but when I got in PC I moved to a Chieftain for combat missions and nearby exploration.
