I was told from "Lesson 1 - Ops and effects of controls" that the safest place for you is in the air. If there is fuel in the tanks and you the engines are going stay in the air until you know what the hell is going on. It has worked in every sim ex I have ever done. If you rush decisions in order to get the ship on the ground you are going to end up missing something. Missing things is very bad.
I have had Senator Katter on many a time and I have always found him to be arrogant, self absorbed and always LATE. ( he must get off on hearing his name called in the terminal)
