If the ships are small, as in Millenium Falcon sized or smaller, then Hard 
Vacuum is what I'd use as the things a ship does are easily translatable 
into skill tests v. a crew's abilities.  If the ships are getting into the 
next bigger class up, then I understand full Thrust could be your answer, 
but I don't know it, just that it's popular.

I'm working on a semi-character driven small scale space game for Two
Hour Wargames... I say semi-character driven because you can play with
no characters (just generic crews) and crew ability is not the only
factor... ship stats matter a lot too... but that could, perhaps,
interest folks here when it comes out.
