Have to say my first day behind the wheel of a executioner under the banner of the Navy was most interesting. Hooked up with a patrol of captain Dimitrova. Having escorted several Bowex vessels that were moving through Liberty space. Accompanied with that some pirates showed themselves and these were neutralized.
Later I've followed up with the patrol that was heading to Hudson to intercept a Rheinland wing. Soon enough both forces clashed and a tense fight was the result. Several fighters from both sides went down but in the end we managed to gain the upper hand and we finished them off to the last fighter. My vessel took some light scratches but nothing a few nanobots couldn't fix.
To add as a final note, the testing of my vessel, patrol and hostile incursion with the Rheinland forces added to the time. Which made me gain my eight hours of flight time.
