Mister Pierce,

A pleasure to make your acquantaince. Was a shame that we were unable to secure a supply contract with Ageira, but I am keen to develop relations with your respected corporation.

We could certainly meet in person. I've several upcoming meetings on Manhattan in the coming days. If you've the availability, I can stop by and we can discuss business, if that is agreeable?

Mister Pierce,

I understand and appreciate that you've other immediate infrastructure projects going on. Speaking of, how is your installation developing?

Proper training for escort duties is a crucial element in convoy and asset protection out in space, I'm glad to see Ageira is taking this step in protecting your own; not to mention the valuable cargo. I previously advised that I'd be willing to cooperate and build relations and, as such, I'd like to begin by sending a few of our highly-talented reserve squadron pilots out to assist in the training of your own security pilots.

I, too, would like to attend alongside them. Perhaps you could give me a tour of the installation and facilities, Mister Pierce? I'm sure you can appreciate, I rarely get in the cockpit myself these days and moreso find myself either at a desk, or in the Command and Information Centre (CIC) of my Flagship.

Mister Pierce,

Understood. Such things take time, naturally.

We've yet to formalize a time, or date, for that matter, of this meeting. I believe 18-11-834 is relatively clear in my calendar as I'm due to inspect a formation at 0900 hrs. If you've any availability later that morning, we could arrange to meet at your Manhattan office.
