Can you Han solo gunner shot at 7 into a locked and loaded bonus shot out the back (not with the turret) with the phantom, then on the Ghosts normal initiative do a primary shot out the front, then another locked and loaded shot out the rear?
Han Solo Gunner on Ghost + Phantom
Locked and Loaded is a Bonus attack, of which you can only perform one per round. You can, however, shoot your one bonus attack after either Han’s ability or your primary shot out the front.
Either way, have fun positioning enemies in all of those arcs without taking shots from all of them.
Yeah positioning would be rough, i just thought it was interesting. Would the locked and loaded attack on Han gunner count as a different bonus attack since its at a different initiative then the ghost? Or does it just go by ship?
Given the lately-revised Rules Reference, no. Gunner Han's attack is now classified as a bonus attack, and there is a limit of one bonus attack per turn.
Seems like a good thing to me, having a hard cap of one normal attack and one bonus attack seems fair.

Oh thank goodness. It always should have been.
E: oh god DAMMIT FFG, that is not an FAQ it is an erratum. Put the word 'bonus' into the Han Gunner card, don't set a precedent of making card text inaccurate via FAQ.

I get what you're saying, but this is a FAQ that anything other than the normal attack is a bonus attack. They should have put that also into the rule on Bonus Attacks, but still. You get a normal attack. You might be able to trigger some other attack. No more. Done.

Then it should be an update to the rules reference on attacks/bonus attacks, not a random answer to an individual question about an individual card.
And what's the purpose of the bonus attack keyword if they're not going to frakking USE it?
They were doing so well...

No doubt.
2e is a lot cleaner; there are still a few issues. I think I said this about Han Gunner way back when. I guess all I'm saying is that at least the card-ruling is broad enough to give a general answer to any future "can I get three attacks" questions.
I'm not disagreeing with that at all.
It's a perfectly generalisable answer.
It's just that it could have been handled fully within the rules of the game, or by errata. It's such a bad place to put a general rule update.

I'm not really disagreeing with that either. It could have been written better.
