Burton was somewhere in the Cortez System. I RV'd with a handful of Freelancers and Orbital vessels to search for his pod, however there was a matching force of Police and Bounty Hunters. The Search and Rescue vessel gave us these special scanners to search for the pod and we were sent off. Over time, I wasn't sure we'd find him. Seems like all of these ice fields were vacant of any life, save for a Rogue or two. Eventually, he was found... by either a Bounty Hunter or Police vessel. They announced it over the system comms and made their way out. Probably to Texas. I don't think I'll be seeing Burton again anytime soon. At least he's alive... . .

[05.11.2021 16:04:53] SAR-Supplies: Now listen up people!
[05.11.2021 16:05:00] sapphire.heart: Eh?
[05.11.2021 16:05:04] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: all ears here.
[05.11.2021 16:05:09] Coot.Matthews: Just get to it already.
[05.11.2021 16:05:10] Faye.Wright: Listenin'.
[05.11.2021 16:05:12] Coot.Matthews: Time is money.
[05.11.2021 16:05:18] OS&C|LY-Pardelas: Ramires: Im all ears.
[05.11.2021 16:05:46] SAR-Supplies: These scanners are rigged to pick up the pod's signal, but it's weak enough that you'd need to be damn close before you see it.
[05.11.2021 16:06:02] SAR-Supplies: So dont think you can go round the back for a drink and come back and still find anythin'.
[05.11.2021 16:06:21] OS&C|LY-Pardelas: Ramirez: Totally understood!
[05.11.2021 16:06:25] sapphire.heart: Ah. Right. Someone told me about a pod out here.
[05.11.2021 16:06:26] Faye.Wright: Long story, they are garbage.
[05.11.2021 16:06:32] Coot.Matthews: Great.
[05.11.2021 16:06:34] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: I see.
[05.11.2021 16:06:39] '\S/'Sol: Leon: To make matters worse...
[05.11.2021 16:06:42] sapphire.heart: Who's the fool that flew off this time.
[05.11.2021 16:06:47] SAR-Supplies: You don't need to fiddle with it though, set it to standard scan, and if it's showing the ships around you on the screen
[05.11.2021 16:06:49] SAR-Supplies: it'll show the pod.
[05.11.2021 16:07:05] James.Spencer: Good lord!
[05.11.2021 16:07:16] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Howdy.
[05.11.2021 16:07:23] SAR-Supplies: We've narrowed down the signal to somewhere in or around Corcovado Ice Field, but can't pin it, seems to be drifting.
[05.11.2021 16:07:24] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: At least something to finde this needle.
[05.11.2021 16:07:33] SAR-Supplies: So double and triple check every inch of it.
[05.11.2021 16:07:37] Coot.Matthews: Corcovado?
[05.11.2021 16:07:44] Carl_Otis: ah, finally. Getting here was a hassle
[05.11.2021 16:07:49] Coot.Matthews: Well this might just be worthwhile after all.
[05.11.2021 16:07:53] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: I see. But still.
[05.11.2021 16:07:54] Carl_Otis: Man, I almost ran out of donuts...
[05.11.2021 16:08:05] Faye.Wright: Avocado.
[05.11.2021 16:08:20] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Hmm, well my starmaps haven't charted that. Fantastic.
[05.11.2021 16:08:29] Olivia.Sable: Luckily, mine have.
[05.11.2021 16:08:33] SAR-Supplies: Now let's see... I gotta keep inventory here, so dont all rush in at once. Once you got your scanner dock, mount,
[05.11.2021 16:08:33] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: I've been there.
[05.11.2021 16:08:39] Carl_Otis: Good day everyone, I heard OS&C has prepared some special equipment for us ?
[05.11.2021 16:08:41] sapphire.heart: So, Wanna hand over that scanner so we can find this fool?
[05.11.2021 16:08:44] SAR-Supplies: and ditch the other one.
[05.11.2021 16:08:46] Coot.Matthews: Then you all know about the usual residents out there.
[05.11.2021 16:09:01] Coot.Matthews: Sol, I recommend you stay home for this one.
[05.11.2021 16:09:06] Olivia.Sable: We'll just leave the Rogues to you hunters. *chuckles*
[05.11.2021 16:09:07] Faye.Wright: Every undesirable. Sure is nice.

[05.11.2021 16:10:52] sapphire.heart: But, it works.
[05.11.2021 16:11:06] Carl_Otis: let's get this baby installed

[05.11.2021 16:11:35] SAR-Supplies: Right, everyone got theirs?
[05.11.2021 16:11:39] '\S/'Sol: form up on me when the scanner is installed
[05.11.2021 16:11:39] sapphire.heart: Got mine
[05.11.2021 16:11:41] sapphire.heart: Odd thing.
[05.11.2021 16:11:41] Olivia.Sable: Guess so.

[05.11.2021 16:11:49] Coot.Matthews: That's really short range.
[05.11.2021 16:11:51] Carl_Otis: All systems nominal, time to find this sucker
[05.11.2021 16:12:04] James.Spencer: Wait, what does it do?
[05.11.2021 16:12:17] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: It scans, obviously.
[05.11.2021 16:12:17] Coot.Matthews: Hey Wright.
[05.11.2021 16:12:22] Faye.Wright: Hm?
[05.11.2021 16:12:23] '\S/'Sol: Starflier SAR team, let's move out.

[05.11.2021 16:12:24] James.Spencer: What sort of range?
[05.11.2021 16:12:26] Coot.Matthews: First one to find this asshole is buying the drinks.
[05.11.2021 16:12:27] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: What else does a scanner do?
[05.11.2021 16:12:42] Faye.Wright: Dead or alive, right?
[05.11.2021 16:12:44] SAR-Supplies: It doesn't got much in terms of scan range, but signals your normal scanner wont pick up, this one does.
[05.11.2021 16:12:47] Death: Korgus was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[05.11.2021 16:12:52] James.Spencer: Oh, who are we hunting?
[05.11.2021 16:12:57] Coot.Matthews: Shit, ain't our fault if he got himself killed.
[05.11.2021 16:13:02] Olivia.Sable: You're not hunting anyone, Spencer.
[05.11.2021 16:13:06] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: Nav-Computer switched to formation flight.
[05.11.2021 16:13:06] James.Spencer: Really?
[05.11.2021 16:13:08] Faye.Wright: Accidents happen.
[05.11.2021 16:13:10] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Apparently some random pilot who got lost, I think.
[05.11.2021 16:13:14] OS&C|LY-Pardelas: Ramirez: Do you have another scanner?
[05.11.2021 16:13:15] SAR-Supplies: The hell are you standin' around for? There's a man runnin' out of life support out there!
[05.11.2021 16:13:23] James.Spencer: If I wanna hunt someone, I'll hunt them.
[05.11.2021 16:13:24] Coot.Matthews: Either way I'm expecting our paycheck.
[05.11.2021 16:13:27] Carl_Otis: The man caused quite some ruckus before getting "lost"
[05.11.2021 16:13:27] Olivia.Sable: Gotta go south
[05.11.2021 16:13:29] '\S/'Sol: Leon: SAR team! Let';s go!
[05.11.2021 16:13:33] Carl_Otis: At least that's what the report said
[05.11.2021 16:13:57] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: Leon, you know where to go?
[05.11.2021 16:13:59] 2021-11-05 16:13:59 SMT Traffic control alert: SAR-Supplies has requested to dock
[05.11.2021 16:14:04] Olivia.Sable: Chief, this isn't the field we were told to check.
[05.11.2021 16:14:14] sapphire.heart: But it's where we should start i reckon
[05.11.2021 16:14:15] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Nope.
[05.11.2021 16:14:25] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: go the other way.
[05.11.2021 16:14:46] '\S/'Sol: split up, try find the pod
[05.11.2021 16:14:50] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: sectors D/E 6/7
[05.11.2021 16:14:51] sapphire.heart: Groups of two?
[05.11.2021 16:14:55] sapphire.heart: remember: GROUPS OF TWO
[05.11.2021 16:14:58] Olivia.Sable: Sapphire, on me.
[05.11.2021 16:15:12] sapphire.heart: coming
[05.11.2021 16:15:25] sapphire.heart: on formation
[05.11.2021 16:15:35] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: Then we will stay together, leon.
[05.11.2021 16:15:39] Olivia.Sable: Let's hope that Starflier didn't just ruin this for us.
[05.11.2021 16:15:52] sapphire.heart: Right, now where is this crazy person.
[05.11.2021 16:16:03] '\S/'Sol: Leon: That's my man you're talking about..
[05.11.2021 16:17:20] Olivia.Sable: Nope.
[05.11.2021 16:17:21] sapphire.heart: Nada.
[05.11.2021 16:17:32] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: No.
[05.11.2021 16:17:33] Olivia.Sable: If he really is in Corcovado, you may have screwed him.
[05.11.2021 16:18:29] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Search everywhere. That info could be incorrect.
[05.11.2021 16:20:53] OS&C|LY-Pardelas: so I won't see the pod unless I have that scanner?
[05.11.2021 16:21:02] Olivia.Sable: Seems like it.
[05.11.2021 16:22:00] Death: KKS-Peter.Strasser was put out of action by Taurus|'Mamacita' (Missile/Torpedo).
[05.11.2021 16:22:40] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Nothing in Roatan
[05.11.2021 16:22:53] Olivia.Sable: You checked the entire cloud already?
[05.11.2021 16:23:05] Olivia.Sable: These scanners only have five clicks of range.
[05.11.2021 16:23:57] Olivia.Sable: Corcovado looks like a dud.
[05.11.2021 16:24:06] Olivia.Sable: We'll check around the star and then the other nebula.
[05.11.2021 16:24:43] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Bolt, feel free to split off.
[05.11.2021 16:24:56] '\S/'Sol: Leon: More area covered the better
[05.11.2021 16:25:05] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: Roger that. Anybody's been at the prestine ice field yet?
[05.11.2021 16:25:11] Olivia.Sable: Just checked.
[05.11.2021 16:25:39] Olivia.Sable: Sapphire, split off and check the north half of the nebula. I'll take the south.
[05.11.2021 16:25:46] sapphire.heart: gotcha
[05.11.2021 16:25:59] sapphire.heart: gonna grid the top of the nebula
[05.11.2021 16:32:18] Olivia.Sable: I sure hope I get my fuel costs reimbursed.
[05.11.2021 16:35:21] Olivia.Sable: Didn't see him anywhere in the southern half of Paloma.
[05.11.2021 16:35:31] sapphire.heart: no luck
[05.11.2021 16:35:34] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Damn!
[05.11.2021 16:35:51] Olivia.Sable: There's a wrecked station to the north. I'll check that out.
[05.11.2021 16:37:18] Olivia.Sable: Fucker's not there, either.
[05.11.2021 16:37:29] '\S/'Sol: Leon: His name is Burton!
[05.11.2021 16:37:47] Olivia.Sable: His name could be Queen Carina of Bretonia for all I care.
[05.11.2021 16:38:38] sapphire.heart: no luck agh
[05.11.2021 16:38:53] Olivia.Sable: If he's drifted off the solar plane, we'll never find him.
[05.11.2021 16:39:25] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: sweeped the corvocado Ice Cloud spirally a bit below the plane,. no luck.
[05.11.2021 16:39:47] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Another day and a half of searching. If we don't find him... then... *sighs*
[05.11.2021 16:39:47] Olivia.Sable: I'll check Roatan again.
[05.11.2021 16:39:59] sapphire.heart: Still searching below the paloma ice field
[05.11.2021 16:41:29] sapphire.heart: Well well well
[05.11.2021 16:41:32] sapphire.heart: This darn scanner has made me lost.
[05.11.2021 16:41:34] '\S/'Sol: LKeon: Any luck?
[05.11.2021 16:41:41] sapphire.heart: Nope.
[05.11.2021 16:45:24] Coot.Matthews: Team One, any luck?
[05.11.2021 16:45:31] Olivia.Sable: None so far. You?
[05.11.2021 16:45:35] sapphire.heart: Pfft. The fool is a pain in the arse to find.
[05.11.2021 16:45:43] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Nothing yet.
[05.11.2021 16:45:53] Coot.Matthews: Feeling like the trail is pretty damn cold.
[05.11.2021 16:45:56] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: No ?uck.
[05.11.2021 16:46:04] LPI-Echo.01: Anyone got any spare sunbucks on hold?
[05.11.2021 16:48:26] Olivia.Sable: Halfway done with on-plane Roatan.
[05.11.2021 16:49:31] Olivia.Sable: Wanna hear a joke?
[05.11.2021 16:49:37] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Sure!
[05.11.2021 16:49:37] sapphire.heart: The pod.
[05.11.2021 16:49:38] Coot.Matthews: Let me guess.
[05.11.2021 16:49:42] Coot.Matthews: This job?
[05.11.2021 16:49:49] Olivia.Sable: Burton's odds of survival.
[05.11.2021 16:49:52] '\S/'Sol: Leon: *sighs*
[05.11.2021 16:49:54] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Ha!
[05.11.2021 16:49:58] LPI-Echo.03: Ace.
[05.11.2021 16:50:01] LPI-Echo.01: Good one.
[05.11.2021 16:50:01] Coot.Matthews: I say the asshole is dead already.
[05.11.2021 16:50:13] sapphire.heart: Tell me about it.
[05.11.2021 16:50:27] Olivia.Sable: Are we only getting paid if we find him alive?
[05.11.2021 16:50:29] Coot.Matthews: Anyone got a line with SAR?
[05.11.2021 16:50:33] [Hunter]Charlie.Jukins: Tick tock, his life is on the clock!
[05.11.2021 16:51:03] Coot.Matthews: We'd better be getting paid even he if got iced.
[05.11.2021 16:51:17] '\S/'Sol: Leon: You'll be paid handsomely, get back to work
[05.11.2021 16:51:30] Coot.Matthews: We are working.
[05.11.2021 16:51:42] Faye.Wright: If you can call this work.
[05.11.2021 16:52:25] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Searching the empty spaces between the clouds.
[05.11.2021 16:52:36] Olivia.Sable: Christ, good luck with that.
[05.11.2021 16:53:03] OS&C|The-o-Bolt: Franklin: Spinning around corvocado ice cloud to cover up and below the plane.
[05.11.2021 16:55:57] Coot.Matthews: Pack it up Team One.
[05.11.2021 16:56:07] Coot.Matthews: Team Two, got the job done.
[05.11.2021 16:56:16] sapphire.heart: Darn.
[05.11.2021 16:56:22] Olivia.Sable: Well, this didn't seem quite fair.
[05.11.2021 16:56:32] '\S/'Sol: Leon: Godamn it.
