Is it possible to make is so you know whether or not your mission is going to have cap ships in it? I like to run missions out in Outcast space, I'll be shooting fighters and doing all good, when all of the sudden I am getting fired at by BH Destroyers! When in a fighter or even Gunboat I still can't do much against them, they make quick work of me, it doesn't make running missions very profitable or fun. Even with the lower level missions (350k to 400k credits) I still find cap ships in the missions. It doesn't make sense that to solo missions you have to save up 200mill credits to get a Destroyer/Cruiser your self.
It would be nice to know if you are going to run across them in your mission instead of having to abort the mission. I understand you could run them in groups but then your profit is cut by a lot and doesn't make much sense to run them vs mining/trading. I still want cap ship missions for when I do have a cruiser but I want to have the option to fight ONLY fighters in a mission once again.
I suggest you look at the level, rather then the payment, usually at difficulty 50 and less there are only fighters (if I remember right, there is a good option I am wrong)

Quite wrong. As early as 35ish can spawn dessies, although it's unusual. Missions from around 150K and upwards have a chance to spawn them. If you're really wanting to avoid those, you could try taking missions against a faction that does not spawn capital ships, such as anti-IMG missions in Orkney or Newcastle, or anti-Sair missions in Eta (You run the risk of running into a pack of Osiris class battleships there, but usually there's a few OC battleships running missions specifically looking for those, so you can shout for help). I do not recommend running anti-IMG missions out of Cali, since the IMG, CR and EDGE player ships will likely put a stop to that quickly.
You could also always poke around your allies bases in Liberty and shoot something from those.
