my name is Mathis Lambert and I'm the Président of Ile-de-France Shipping.
As you may already heard, we are back in business and our pilots are already participating in your daily convoys. We are glad that your pilots gave us a warm welcome and we finally want to rebuild our reputation between each other.
I'am awaiting your answer.
Warmest Regards-
Mathis Lambert,
Président - Ile-de-France Shipping
It is a great pleasure to hear from IDF again. Congratulations to your new position.
IMG Mission reports have shown that IDF vessels have become quite a frequent sight in the Taus, and I like what I see. Ile-de-France Shipping was - after the invasion - the first Gallic entity that offered a hand to those who surrendered, and the Guild has not forgotten. We are looking forward to promoting cooperation and increasing cooperation wherever this is possible.
Good luck, Président. If you need anything, or if anything happens between IMG and IDF, do not hesitate to call me at any hour.
Yours sincerely,
Jack Henderson
IMG Operations

FROM: Everett Fontaine, Vice président, Ile-de-France Livraison.
SUBJECT: Independent Miners Guild Cooperation.
TO: Jack Henderson, IMG executives.
Bonjour, monsieur Henderson,
I am Everett Fontaine, current vice président of IDF. I have had the luxury and experience of joining your convoys on multiple occasions now. Doing so has permitted me to safely meet, let us say, a colorful band of Sirians with little care for what happens in the world, focused only on their good times and profits.
Nonetheless monsieur I am not here to chastise the quality of humanity within the escorts you select for your convoys, but rather to convey certain good wishes and requests on behalf of Président Lambert.
Our work crews have, on occasion, used their very limited experience with your mining rigs to aid in the transfer of materials to IDF and other convoy vessels. In return this exchange of manpower has permitted IDF to avoid the rather costly fees associated with directly hiring your own mining crews and simply waiting around unproductively for the remaining vessels to be filled. My experience in other Gallic industries has definitely taught me the value of a more direct approach to resource acquisition.
With this in consideration Ile-de-France Livraison would like to consider an exchange of technical systems and operating procedures between our two organizations. Specifically:
We request that the Independent Miners Guild provide us with:
One example of Guild transport craft.
One example of Guild bomber craft.
One example of Guild fighter craft.
These will permit our crews to gain experience with IMG systems and allow us to streamline our joint convoy operations further than current levels permit.
In retrun Ile-de-France Livraison is willing to issue:
Three ME-UH "Vache" Gallic Trains, or other Gallic transport vehicles as our resourcing and Crown considerations permit. Gallic ingenuity is second to none and you will find them quite effective at their tasks.
IDF Shipping hopes we will be able to continue operating such fruitful joint operations and awaits your thoughts on this matter.
