I still havent read the whole New Jedi Order books but I was just wondering if Luke was and still is flying around with his old X-Wing ship. I think it would be time for him to get his own personal ship like Han has the Millenium Falcon

Off hand, he lost one at Bespin, had AA-589 for a long time, Was given a B-Wing and destroyed it cause he didn't like it, Had a T-65D loaner whuich he blew up, and I think lost -589 on Nirauan. Then he had an XJ, a few XJ-3s, and pretty much all the variants past that.

Looks like Luke goes through ships like Han goes through kids.

you guys sure Luke got a new X-Wing after he left his on Bespin? I thought he got it back by sneaking back in Bespin to get it back since in the older books like Truce at Bakura, Heir to the Empire Trilogy and Courtship of Princess Leia do state that he uses his old X-Wing and even in New Rebellion.

I just havent had the time or money to go buy the latter books like for the New Jedi Order books.

Doesn't he have an E-wing in the BFC? And an R7 unit to replace R2?

Poor Han and Leia. Such mediocre parents at best.

You could always go to the library and get the books. They usually have most of the Star Wars books there. Well, I know my libraries have them.

I was under the impression that most of the X-Wings he flew were either property of the Rebellion/NR or the Jedi Order, not Luke's own private property. For sure that's what it looks like by LOTF, where Jedi Order X-Wings seem to be free to use for anyone in the order.

No, he lost that years ago. On Nirauan, I think.

I guess he does have his own ship: the Jade Sabre which he built for Mara. I won't reveal anymore lest i spoil it for you.

He is also now flying a "stealth X" sort of like a jedi starfighter for the new era. It's black and is virtually invisible to the enemy for the most part.

watching prison break the other night they said the elec chair makes you incontinent. So does that mean that mace windu pooped himself right before he went out the window? Or did Luke make a stain on
the death star? maybe DV died of embarasment?

In Legacy of the Force, StealthX was mentioned the most.

Yeah, these days he seems to just pick the latest model of X-wing in Jedi use.

No different to a car, right? You prefer StealthE, for E-wing?

Yep, he flies a Stealth-X now, unless he decides to fly around in the Jade Shadow.
