I am trying to figure out how to land at the secret rebel base on Dantooine. I hate driving 7 klicks one way to talk to Brother Vrovel, then drive back another 7 klicks and hope I down flub up on the mission. Yes I have already read the Pilot Faq. 3.0 sticky thread regarding landing at theme parks. Yes I have read the one entry from Gregorian Pipes that specifies how he did it. My question is that information is from February. Is that info still accurate? When I go to the Dantooine space station and ask for work I am given 3 choices: kill pirates (did it), escort freighters (did not complete it) and supply run (did not do it). The escort freighter mission is nothing like the entry describes in the sticky. Thereare no Tie fighters etc. I fly out to the waypoint to meet the freighter,3 pirates hyper in, followed by 5 more 2 minutes later. The freighter has to get close to the space station and then drops off their cargo. I have been able to get through 3 waves of freighter drop offs, but by the 4th wave I am so beat down that I cannot complete another wave without getting destroyed.
So my question is 1) is the information from Feb. still good? and 2) if so, what space station do you get that mission from? I have tried a reb space station but it only offers me the option to go to Kessel/deep space. Any ideas?

i had a problem with this a while back, the destroy pirates duty mission does not work as far as i know, it's endless so you never get permissions, try to complete one of the others and he offers you a final mission, (can't remeber what it is exactly) and then you can land at the base, saves TONS of time beleive me.

WhenI talk to the dant space station, there is an option for special landing permissions, I would try that.

Yesterday I was a Vortex Pilot 1111 and was doing a duty mission from Brother V. (tip: If you do have the Luxury Yacht and don't use it, you can destroy from your datapad, generate it again and use it to travel from the Abandoned Rebel Base to the MO; it doesn't work the other way sadly) when too many adds aggroed on me. I managed to escape and made my way to the Landing Station.
When I contacted the station, I noticed a last option about "Requesting Special Langing Permissions" or something like that. I guessed it was the mission to land at the base, patched up in the station and went for it.
I was blown up while protecting the freighter from the first mission (a bunch of tier 3 aggroed on me at some point) but I reappeared in space at the Station. The weird thing is that the first mission was considered to be done and was given a second one where I had to destroy a Decimator and his escort. The escort was easy, but the decimator, being an Alliance 1111 (Flying a heavy Z-95 btw) with all my systems damaged to some point was really hard. When I finally destroyed it (took me a lot of flying and shunting from capacitor to shields) the last mission was up, about destroying some TIEs that were attacking some freighters. I was able to finish it even after getting MORE adds (you gotta love dantooine space aggro) and was finally granted the option of landing directly to the Abandoned Rebel Base, which I used to train to 1211 and be able to replace my components (all of them heavily damaged) for shiny Mark III ones.
