Subject: 'Corsair' Gunboat in FP1 NFZ
Sirs,
I would like to report an incident outside Freeport 1 this morning.
I had just exited the Trade Lane from Cambridge Jump Gate and was on my way to Dock with FP1
I saw a ship on my scanner with the ID TSGB but the IFF was neutral so I didn't pay it much heed.
Below is the conversation that took place while I was manoeuvring to dock:
[23.04.2012 08:23:23] TSGB: Turn Your Engines down
[23.04.2012 08:23:36] 2012-04-23 07:23:05 SMT
[23.04.2012 08:23:36] Bowex)Faraday: Don't be daft!
[23.04.2012 08:24:09] TSGB: 1 mil
[23.04.2012 08:24:16] Traffic control alert: Bowex)Faraday has requested to dock
[23.04.2012 08:24:37] 2012-04-23 07:24:06 SMT
[23.04.2012 08:24:37] Bowex)Faraday: This a Freeport...
At which point the docking process was completed.
Unfortunately I could not get any gun camera images as my ship was pointing at the Control Tower of FP1, but I can assure you the Gun Boat was firing on me as I was docking.
Therefore all I can ask is that you keep an eye out for this rouge, as I am sure he'll try and do this again to some poor unsuspecting trader.
I did manage to get a quick scan of the ship which identified it as Corsair Gunboat; which is odd as the IFF showed it as neutral to me; perhaps he had stolen it from the Corsairs?
I will of course keep you informed if I see this 'pirate' again.
