darkwheeldarkwheelBlack Flight operates as a cloaked private military unit in the Pleiades region with resources to intercept mega-ships and conduct unauthorized operations. Their connection to the Club, involvement in Palin's kidnapping, and potential access to permit-locked systems suggests they may guard restricted access zones or enforce information suppression regarding Raxxla.

Cloaked engineered DBXs attributed to Black Flight, a private military unit operating in Pleiades. Likely responsible for Palin's kidnapping and appear to work for the Club faction based on operational patterns.
Good to see people tinfoiling. A few points on what might be relevant in the lore. According to John Harper and Drew Wagar, non of the writers got any info on Raxxla. Soontil was specifically created because John was not allowed to touch Raxxla. John has also confirmed that the Dark Wheel never found Raxxla and that at the start of ED, they did not know i where(or what?) it is. Fast, cloaked DBXs is 90% confirmed to belong to Black Flight. A private military unit, operating in the Pleiades. Black flight uses almost exclusively engineered DBXs and their call sign matches the first reports. This is probably the group that kidnapped Palin. It's quite likely that these guys work for the Club.
Black Flight covered up Thargoid Structures before public knowledge. Club diverted research via Guardian relic hints. Black Flight has resources to interdict mega-ships, suggesting coordination with Sirius Corp and Wraken, both apparently under Club control.
Before the Thargoid Structures became public knowledge, the Black Flight were covering up their existence. So definitely a bit of a potential Club link, but not necessarily one - they could be entirely their own thing. Click to expand... The Club did what they could to delay progress in Thargoid research. Most substantially they gave the hints(number station satellites) to find Guardian ruins. This was done to divert Canonn resources away from the Pleiades. Black Flight operations seem to fit the Club agenda well, but there is no direct link. They do however have the resources to interdict and disable mega-ships. That suggests that they are on good terms with Sirius corp and Wreaken. The Club seem to assert full control over these two companies. The Club is according to Drew, a Front...
Black Flight military outfit in Pleiades may hold key to permit-locked system HIP 22460. Hypothesis that special tasks or faction missions may be required to unlock certain permits beyond standard gameplay.
Well my little plan failed, miserably. Finding out the name of the Military outfit in the Pleiades (Black Flight) inspired me to mess around their activities and see if i couldn't discover something new. My plan was to change my callsign to my ship's ID then change the ID of my DBX to match the Black Flight's SV(I) system. Thats only what i changed. Their pilots IDs are always SVI while their Ships are SV and number. Changing my ID would require changing my Gamer tag on XBOX, and i didn't want to do that. Still, my furthest hope was that by full convincing members by the outfit i was one of them MIGHT lead me to get the permit for HIP 22460. Part of me believes that there are some systems with permits that require a special task or mission in order to become unlocked. Distinct from the typ...
