*cough*
Bring on Crews as a part of the game!!!!!
*/end cough*
I typed this a couple of days ago, but it bares repeating: I think the various ships sshould have slots for special "officers" to be installed, imbuing you with a ship related bonus. Frigates and Destroers might not have any (too small), Cruisers and BC have 1, BS's 2, Dreads and Carriers 3, motherships 4, Titans 5. Basic(ish) ones should be available from NPC vendors (w00t, more ISK sinks!) and you could get special faction officers from special loot drops and mission rewards.
Bearing in mind they're already coding Rigs, I imagine it would be pretty easy to work this into the code.

Whatever the movie might say, the movie is wrong. The Mel Falcon is more akin to a big fighter than to a real frigate.

Thats a frigate folks, give or take 190 man or a bit less crew. This frigate was also designed bottom-up to reduce the number of men needed. Most of comparable size need around 260 or so people. Not very many windows people.
We are rather assuming that ships in EVE are at all comparable to similarly named ships in RL. It does take place unsecified thouasands of year in the future, in an isolated galaxy- theres no reason an EVE frigate has to be related to RL frigates.
Case and point, in RL a Battleship is a piece of off shore artillery, more than anything else- this would make them analogous to an EVE Dreadnought (indeed, "Dreadnought" was the name of the first modern Battleship class). EVE Battleships are more akin to RL Cruisers in their role and purpose.
Suspension of disbelief is a wonderful thing, in sci-fi
