Dear Sir or Madam,
my name is Jack Henderson, I work in Operations Coordination of the Independent Miners Guild and I was informed about yesterday's operations of IMG and the Jumping Zoners. The successful operation (Barge transportation, unloading and reloation) was impressive and you proved that the new technology can also be put to a civilian use.
Our data bases show that you are primarily interested in Falster Trade Center and access to Silver Ore. I dare say we are the only reliable provider in the Omegas that can handle the immense numbers of goods that your group is capable of transporting.
I was told that there is an agreement about pricing with the Falster docking manager, which we can keep for the moment until we have figured out the full possibilities that a close cooperation could provide. I was also told there is the possibility of a goods exchange of Helium-3 for Silver ore. We might need to reconsider that, as Helium-3 is bought mainly by the BMM, a group that do not share trade relations with. But for the time being, we will find ways to sell the H-3.
In combination with the Guild's demand for fast and safe long-range transportation I see perfect opportunities for the future. One of which could be that the Guild contracts your group to transport large amounts of IMG transport vessels to the target destination. We would like to give bringing our own vessels a try. Of course your transport pilots are welcome and would be filled with goods (most likely unrefined ore of variable type) by IMG miners, bases or however we organise it.
To improve cooperation, I have established a direct uplink between the IMG and the Jumping Zoner Headquarters, so that communication in real time is possible. Please confirm the secure protocol and check the line for an incoming call this evening.
If everything goes according to plan, I will be seeing your men in a few hours. Details are being sent as we speak via secure protocols.
I am looking forward to meeting you in space, and I am curious about the new opportunities that your group has opened.
Yours sincerely
Jack Henderson
IMG Operations Coordinator

Good day sir Henderson, I am Lethis Khazar captain of the Mother Whale.
The operation we have planned went like a charm, had a few downs but not something we cannot fix of course. Too bad of the Outcast intrusion and the malfunction to one of the whales' engine.
I understand about the Helium-3 and Silver Ore deal, and this can be discussed over the secured channel, a new deal can be made and who knows what else, we're open to plenty of suggestions.
The secured channel received a signal boost so we can communicate more frequently. I am looking forward for more operations like the last one and even other types.
