After browsing through the ships, also consider that maneuverability is hindered in atmospheres - and conversely in space, that when manually turning flight-assist off during combat to turn / rise/dip quickly, that doing-so without gravity's constant influence causes it to turn faster as well as potentially spin out of control more easily. It is an additional comfort or false-sense of security that you can get used to when over-estimating your ability to fly the same way in an atmosphere as you are used-to in space! Or a delayed-disappointment, that if you get used-to an atmosphere, that you then won't be as able to make the most of the freedom of flying in space - you will be free of gravity/air, but not USED-to it like players who learned to fly in-space FIRST. | After browsing through the ships, also consider that maneuverability is hindered in atmospheres - and conversely in space, that when manually turning flight-assist off during combat to turn / rise/dip quickly, that doing-so without gravity's constant influence causes it to turn faster as well as potentially spin out of control more easily.

In VR learning at planets can reduce dizziness / nausea though, so no-one should criticize you for learning for that reason! If you plan to play ED for a long time, then you'll have to get used to not flying around surfaces of planets all the time eventually. It might not be best to put 'all your eggs in one basket' if that's the case - do not OVER-invest in terrestrially-designed fighters. | In VR learning at planets can reduce dizziness / nausea though, so no-one should criticize you for learning at planets for that reason!

(some missions require fast landing and take off, with good shields, but such missions do not need to be done in fighters) | (some missions require fast landing and take off, with good shields, but such missions do not need to be done in fighters) | ||
