Good day, old chaps!

I'd like to begin by thanking you for taking in myself and my family. We owe you a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid.

For our contribution to our new home, the crew of the Aluminum Falcon has decided to remain together and continue doing what we do best. Our first trade run under the NO banner started off at Minato Harbor, where we acquired a load of Niobium at rather generous prices. Using my trade contacts from a long career at Bowex, I managed to secure a buyer on Manhattan. We proceeded south through Kusari space and arrived safely at Manhattan, where we completed the delivery.

From there, we accepted a cargo of Liberty Ale. How the bloody yanks drink that swill, I'll never understand... During my Bowex days, we would've carried it to New London, where I assume some idiot hipster drinks it ironically, for a substantial profit. Sadly, I don't think we'd be exactly welcome on New London at the present time, so I accepted a contract to deliver it to Denver instead.

After safely delivering our Raw Sewage Liberty Ale to Denver, we picked up a load of pharmaceuticals. Again using past trade contacts, I managed to locate a buyer on Malta willing to pay a substantial sum. Finding a profitable export from Malta, on the other hand, may prove difficult. I did manage to convince the harbor master that I was not here to pick up Cardamine, but that does limit my options a little. I'm going to stay here a short time while my crew performs some routine maintenance. It'll give me a little time to shop around for trade opportunities.
