Sir, excuse me for saying so, but are we just going to let every Thomas, Richard, and Zoner ship through our system? They maybe "neutral" and all, but flying through when Gold squadron is on maneuvers or testing new weaponry could very easily turn into our enemies knowing our tactics.
These "neutral" Zoners could sell to anyone! That includes secrets. My Eagle stands ready to very carefully inspect any and all ships through Omega 52...sir.
I understand Ms. Tate's free pass, her exploits in defense of the Freeport 11 are well known and respected, but pretty soon it's going to be a highway of "Zoners" passing through lol-ygaging about.
Sorry sir, but I don't know if I agree with Command's decisions on this.
