===Joining the Standing Fleet===

Here's how to join the Standing Fleet: [[image:Fleet.png|right|The Fleet icon]]

# Open the Fleet window by clicking the icon on your [[Neocom|Neocom panel]]. (If you removed Fleet from your Neocom, click the Neocom Menu at the top left of your screen, then Social > Fleet.)

# Click the Fleet Finder tab in the fleet window. Under that tab, click Find Fleets.

# Look for the fleet named ''NSC Standing Fleet''. Glance at the fleet boss to check that they have the corporation icon, a white star in a green square. (If they don't, it's a bogus fleet and you should not join it.)

# Double- or right-click to join . You will automatically be added to the fleet; there is no approval needed.

Tips:

* If you don't see the fleet in the Find Fleets pane, try searching again with the Scope set to ''My Available Fleets''. The fleet is supposed to be listed as being open to corporation and alliance but sometimes people set this wrong.

* If the Fleet icon has been removed from your Neocom panel, you can drag it back there from the menu.
