I wish these could be glad tidings, sir!
The lads and I met up with Herr Koch in space above planet Leeds. We had agreed to run a Pullman run together when we, and our escort, a nice chap who's name I can't seem to remember at the moment (my poor old memory), were caught up in a fierce ion storm near the jump gate to Omega 3. I lost visual contact and could not reach anyone on radio. I was able to make it to Freeport 1 where we set the Devonshire down for repairs. I had every intention of taking off again in search for them, but the station manager ordered a grounding of all ships in it's bays, due to the severity of the storm. I've still not heard from Herr Koch... Hopefully he is in good health wherever he and his crew are.
Truely,
Niles Perrywinkel
