I kinda like the idea to have some ships certified only to some ground profs... This is not related to stats, because as like many others, I would not want the Jedi to have benefits in space as well, but from a roleplaying point of view, giving the Jedi a JSF (I am NOT jedi, not wanna be one), smugglers a smuggle ship (like the YT-1300), BH a Bounty hunter ship (Firepsray), etc. etc.
Well personaly that's very dodgy from a roleplay view for me, smugglers all using the same ship ? Nice way to blend in with normal freighter traffic. The JSF was used by lots of pilots that weren't jedi so why should only they get it now ?
Adding ships for specific ground professions adds variety in the way class specific armor quests for each class did back in EQ before armor dye (*see person in dark blueplate* owwh look a bard *see person in light blue plate* ahhh a warrior). The way to add variety is to keep adding more ships to the right pilot professions so that all pilots of that faction can go with the ship they like the look of best. Not the ones with the best stats.

Jedi should know by now where we think they can stick their glowbats. You want to be special in space? EARN IT. Learn to fly. Be the best pilot out there. But do it YOURSELF. This isn't the ground. You can take your "I'm a Jedi, I'm better than everyone else" attitude and stick it. Up here, you're nothing until you make yourself something. Can't get by without your "uber" Jedi powers? Sucks for you. Jedi aren't unwelcome here, but if you think for half a second that your ground profession means anything, you're dead wrong. This is our playground, and we don't need an "alpha class" out here. In space, no one can hear you whine.
/rant over?
I agree though

I know some Jedi that are just flat out BAD (and I mean bad as in the worst possible excuse for a pilot). It makes no sense to give that type of player a special ship just because they grind out jedi on the ground. I'mNOT for jedi getting any special treatment in space at all. I am a Jedi, and I don't want to deal with any more "jedi hate" than I already deal with.
