Ah, James is a good guy, but he hasn't got a clue. Within a day of starting with him, I've cleaned this old rusty thing up so much you wouldn't recognise it. This old log he got from his Camara, well, now I've cleaned it's base unit, it's not so bad. It's got a multi-user functionality, and I've even bought a second audio input/output connector for it, not that we need it, 'cos there's no space in the cabin for two people really.
Well, at the moment, James is asleep in the back of the cabin. I've insisted that we fly this thing in turns, so I'll take it from Nuremburg to Macduff, and James will do the other bit. While I'm piloting, he can kip, and whiles he flies, I can. Which is great, because it means we can effectively work this ship 24/7.
What I have been doing though, is calculating a few things. I've got everything arranged with Interspace, and just need James to sign off on it (I haven't even mentioned it to him yet) but I'm going to get us a Train. It has, most importantly, a larger cabin space. It has a small kitchen, two sleeping quarters and a sensible sized cockpit, well, it's more of a bridge really. The only small drawback is that Interspace say that as we're working from an 'Independently contracted' ship, basically one they don't own, we'll have to have an official Interspace accountant to fly with us. This only applies for ships with larger cargo holds, but I think James will go aright with this. The extra guy's paid by Interspace, so not from our profits, so he's no extra cost to us.
The other great thing is, once we have the ship, if we save up enough, we can pay for an engine upgrade that will make the ship powerful enough to tow another cargo section. This will effectively multiply the cargo capacity by 1.5, and considering even before that it's three times bigger (so 3 times the profits) than this transport. I've heard of Trains getting a fourth cargo section, but Interspace won't let us get one, which is a shame. They say the ships are too unstable with that much cargo, and as such they won't insure them. No insurance, no flying.
Ok, well, we're just passing Holman now, so I'm off, I'll mention this to James when we get to the Macduff...

I was formerly know as Spiritar.

It's been a while.
