-'''1. Some odd oxp stations installed, like [[WildShips OXP]].'''
+See [[Oolite Stations]] for a good selection (be warned - some (''e.g. Globe, Octahedron, Tetrahedron, Torus & Transhab'') merely replace the main system station).
-With some extra stations installed you get in-system station to station passenger contracts. If there is a passenger waiting at the station you currently are, he/she/it can be found from the interfaces screen (f4). Look for In-system taxi deliveries. If you accept a contract, launch and fly to the destination station. If you reach it in time, you will be thanked and payed. If you performed good, you'll get a premium.

-From Taxi Galactica Station you can buy an In-System Taxi Comms device. The device allows you to receive in-system passenger contract offers through your Comms while you are cruising. To buy such a device, you must have the advanced space compass and at least one passenger berth installed. Device costs you 90 credits. After you have bought the device you have a new primable equipment that is used for accepting in-system taxi offers in-flight. After receiving an offer through comms, you have 60 seconds to accept it. (select equipment with shift-n and activate it with n). After accepting the contract, it is added to your manifest screen. Next pick the passenger from the correct station. You'll be notified, when he/she/it is on board.

 ==Some notes==
 * Only one in-system passenger is allowed at a time.
-* Accepted contract can be cancelled by activating the primable equipment second time. The passenger must not have boarded yet.
