Escalations - How hard do they really get?

So my main has been trying out exploration the last couple of days and thismorning struck lucky with an escalation. Did the 1st 3 parts fine but now I've been sent a short way into 0.0 for the next site. The escalation is "Salvation Angel's Shipment".

I'm not concerned about venturing out into 0.0, I've lived there enough times. What concerns me is that my corp mates are saying it'll be impossible to solo. I've tried searching evelopedia (which is bollocks for angel sites) and google for any info on it. All to no avail.

So my question - Can a drake take it on? Can 2 drakes take it on? Or should i just say screw this and go back to playing in radar sites?

The key to exploration is (strangely enough) ....Exploring! Enjoy the mystery or stick with mission running where every mission has been documented to death- therefore no risk.

It's a Drake for god sake- how much could you lose 50-70 mil? Throw caution to the wind and let it rip.

Rumour has it that the Eve University wiki and their exploration pages has some info.

Sad

Unfortunately the last location of the "Salvation Angel's Shipment" expedition isn't documented.

Escalations from lower sites - such as outposts - are usually quite doable in a Drake/similar ship. While I can't speak for Angel escalations I'm assuming they'd be easier than Blood Raider escalations - no nueting, easier to kite - and all the lowsec Blood escalations are doable in a Drake or Gila, though it may take awhile.
