I mainly do passenger and exploration missions and recently bought a 6B Fuel Scoop (752l/s) for my Python to reduce downtimes and dependencies of inhabited systems. What can I say... it's literally enough to surf by the star's halo on the way around it to the next hyperspace jump point. A ~20LY's worth of fuel consumption is therefore taken care of in a matter of seconds.

The only downside to the Python in general is its increased mass in comparison to the ASP Explorer with the same FSD-maximum 5A, thus leading to reduced jump ranges. However, I will do a race with a friend in his fully upgraded ASP X, save a 3A Fuel Scoop, to determine who's faster: Me without any downtimes for fuel scooping or him with his superior jump range of 26LY. Stay tuned!
