As I have mentioned not long ago, there are massive Boron - Beryllium Convoys passing through The Barrier unnoticed! For example the following group:
Arcadius
Cobrae

Another trader was trying to damage Hacker ships as he was escaping a patrol of Daggers: Stucuk - $200,000 bonus for successful Piracy of this Trader.
A friendly smuggler called Schunterr through whom I have established good relations with the Junkers provided a generous reward for me escorting him from Beaumont to the Leeds Jump Hole:
As my job was finished I engaged a rank 39 civilian Executioner "Friis" (civilian weapons aboard, trying to disrupt Lane Hacker operations, Police IFF) and removed that nuisance from the Magellan System by opening a few holes in his hull by my Hellflurries and detonating a Slingshot Missile in his cargo bay. Sleep tight, I'm watching over you.
Phate's log, supplemental:
I have seriously damaged an LSF Ravenclaw near the New York Jump Gate in Texas. The pilot had to retreat and was forced to dock at Fort Bush due to his injuries. I evaded the =LSF= patrol assigned to that location to bump into another after jumping to Colorado. I managed to shake him in the Ontario System when I double-backed to and from California. I kept straight on to Alberta and Yukon and finally arrived to Leiden in Galileo through Cassini. I exchanged a few captured pilots for a Hvy. Countermeasure Dropper and with a little pit stop on Padua, my Dromedary has boldly set course for Illinois.
After retrieving an ARCHANGEL codename weapon I was struck with a slight paranoia, which was useful when avoiding a Liberty fleet in orbit around Denver and squeezing into the Trade Lane faster than an unsuspecting trader. My ship wasn't really well tweaked yet, so pirating him was out of the question. I didn't want to attract any extra attention with that weird-looking thing in my hold, anyway. The rest of the trip to Vespucci was relatively uneventful.
