[Interstellar Transit]

Trip Log submission by: Captain Jake Donovan, =IT=Mercury

Brief summary of trip: Well it has begun! All those years invested in learning and earning, I've put in the paperwork for both the business start of 'Interstellar Transit' as well as a ride to get me started: a beaut of a Camara I was able to secure for a steal of a deal from a used vendor just looking to get it off their lot. These ship dealers, I swear they don't see the value hidden under a few years of ship 'experience'! I had that engine running in top form in no time flat and with a few trial runs I'm sure those electrical quirks will work their way out of the systems (or I'll reroute to nicely remove them from client observation...). With everything going on getting the initial venture started, I've been delayed in getting words to journey files, so I'll keep the summary very brief to get it up to date! I managed to start off Denver with some passengers interested in a trip to Cold Bay in Hudson, so with the shake-down passes over with, I took our organization's first paid contract out to Hudson on what ended up being a fairly routine run. From there, I was able to find some crew that were interested in taking their leave on Manhattan, which was fortunately a destination I was eager to entertain, as I'd been scoping out offices on the planet for a better potential 'first impression' of our operations with respect to client relations. We left immediately after the station's maintenance crew fueled us up and I did the pre-launch. Landing on Manhattan, I was able to look around at a few locations in the commercial districts and gather some data for later review. There's a lot to consider and every option has a price! The next few trips blew by quick: Some passengers to Allentown, some crew to Planet Pittsburgh, a passenger trip to the California system at San Diego then crew to Cali Minor. A group on Cali Minor wanted flight out to Vespucci, to a liner ran by OS&C they'd heard great things about. It was not a system I was very familiar with, but I had the navs on the route, and they had the credits... off we went. Despite a liner being out in this system, it still displayed a lot of signs of past traumas... the wrecks throughout, the minefield we carefully traversed after jumping in from Magellan, the random debris... parts of it could still have been a Junkers' paradise! We made it to the liner intact, though, and I was able to secure some stocks of Liberty Ale in addition to a new set of departing passengers going to Manhattan. Second time around through the mines and jumphole to Magellan was now almost routine, the first trip having shaken any jitters out or hesitations away. The rest of the way to Manhattan went smoothly, allowing for some future thinking on plans ahead for the enterprise...
