06.02.818
Patrol started early on this day, as I took off from New Berlin. I've decided to move to Hamburg System to look around. It didn't take too long to find the first suspect of ze day, an Independent Trader with the callsign of InternationalTraders, being escorted by a Freelancer, Jack Johnson. The trader was carrying Gate and Lane parts, which is licenced to DSE and Agiera only, so I asked the trader to return with his cargo to where he got it or drop it there and continue.
Unfortunately, he decided to run, while the freelancer attacked me. With no chance to pursuit the trader, I turned on the attacking escort, and after a bit of play, I took his ship out of commission.
Later on, I found the trader leaving Rheinland towards the Omega systems. I ordered him to explane his actions and to pay a fine of 2 million credits, since this was the first time for him breaking the rules. However, I warned the trader if he is found breaking the law again, he will be shot on sight.
After getting this thing done, and taking care of a few personal things, I've headed back to New Berlin, where I ran into a wondering Corsair fighter. After multiple tries to contact it, he kept heading towards the New Berlin jumpgate. I could not let this, and forced the pilot to stop. Not only he stopped, but also opened fire on me, so I had no other option to disable him. http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu23/ol...FP/screen25.jpg
After this, I've returned to New Berlin.

10.02.818
After taking off from New Berlin, I've headed towards Bonn Station, after checking a few transport ships passing by New Berlin. Right there, I've found a few pirate pilots and a load of Optronics floating around. I've tractored some of the equipment onboard for further analysis to confirm it's origin.
A few minutes later, I've joined with Direktor Hildebrant at and two Kadetts and moved to the Hamburg System. Over there, we've found a recruit, he probably had his transponder broken, because he was sending hostile signals.
The Direktor returned to Alster, while me and the Kadets continued our patrol in Hamburg. After not finding anything, we wnet back to new berlin, where we found a freelancer in a Bounty Hunter ship, carrying lots of illegal weaponry on board. After multiple tries, we couldn't contact him, and he managed to hide.
A few minutes later, we have found a trade ship, hauling Diamonds and headed to New York. This cargo is licenced to Intespace only so I asked the trader to return the goods to Bonn or drop them there. Instead of this, he fired on our ships, so we had no other options but to disable the vessel. Without any ways to tractor it's whole cargo onboard, I've got some for inspection to confirm that it is from Bonn Station.
Later on, we have picked up an LWB fighter on long range sensors, but it ran away when he sighted us, so there was nothing we could do. After all, we have returned to New Berlin to rest and refuel both ourselves and the ships. I have also unloaded the cargo and moved the pirate pilots to interrogation rooms to try and get some information out of them.
