For T3s I would think the minimum (i.e. no modules) requirement would be very low compared to a T1 or T2 cruiser, but the non-subsystem modules themselves are not Tech-3. Therefore, I would guess that it needs SOME crew to operate. T3s do have some windows, although compared with other cruisers, there are far fewer. --Kyle Tracer 01:43, 17 July 2012 (GMT)
Following that reason it would then be fair to assume that the tech 3 cruiser should require little or no crew at all, considering how sophisticated they are and how automated everything must be.
It's often been speculated that since Tech 2 ships are designed expressly for capsuleer piloting, they might generally have lower crew requirements. Can a CCP type confirm/deny this? It'd be good info to include here if it is in fact the case.

Typical crew numbers.
Allright, so we have minimum crew numbers (for both capsuleer variants and non-capsuleer variants) and we have maximum passengers.
But what is a "typical" crew when all modules are loaded and the ship is flying on some operation? Numbers for both capsuleers and non-capsuleer variants would be cool. Any sources for this apart from "all this lives are fit to ruin"?
Pretty low counts
Some of these ships have very low crew counts given their size, more specifically, titans.
I refuse to believe that a titan, in which some are 18km in length, only have a max capacity of 145,000.
Imagine a city the size of New York lets say, now imagine only 145,000 people living there, be one heck of a walk before you see another person
I cant remember where I read this but a titan crew is upwards of 7-8 million people, which seems a lot more beleivable.
Can anyone discern where i (may) be wrong on this? any factual proof?
