When hyperspacing to a station, go to the supply station instead. You will end up about 1 click from the station instead of 70. Works REALLY nice when you are cloaked and going for an enemy station, since iridium is EXPENSIVE, and you don't have to travel 65 clicks to begin firing.

OMGF, this really works. It brings you almost within docking distance of a station, directly in front of the supply station. It cuts down extremely on that flying time to the station after HJ.

You can do better if you manage to put a waypoint for your CC in a blind spot near the station itself..... then you have to stay cloacked only for the jump.
But I advise a fast capture or destruction or you'll be surrounded by enemy forces and SDMs...

HJing to the Supply station is now the only way I approach stations (great for getting into close range and taking them over) Thanks for the wonderful tip!
