Hi,
I was incredibly lucky to pick a distress mission in the same system, planet Rivoch. Really in my system? let's check the map...Let's go...

Nothing special about the 2 jump travels with my C3 drive, arriving at the planet just quickly set the waypoint for the nearest city.
Got the speed to 1480, and , oh yeah, citiy in sight... But only 40 seconds left...

Suddently a big storm comes up throwing my ship though the atmosphere like a little toy... cannot stay on course... Desperatly used my afterburner at the risk to make a fireball in the sky. Ok , landing point in sight... 8, 7, 6...

No, I didn't make it. I can swear I was just 2 seconds late :)

These storms look beautiful, but, the heck, not in this situation :P

Next time maybe!
