FTL doesn't imply time travel if it's restricted to a special frame.

I've always had the view that FTL travel necessitates time travel in certain frames of reference. Special frames of reference are currently "unpopular".

It sounds like you are referencing a special reference frame where FTL could prove such a special reference frame exists, and that such a frame would allow FTL to be possible without time travel.

Can you explain a little more about this idea?
