| (...) Well, Philip DID say none of his ships would ever be landing on a planet. And one man fighters would probably have a limited fuel supply, so going too far probably wouldn't be an option. And I doubt you'd want to land on an enemy ship. So as (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jul-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
