Acting Captain Matthew Roberts checking in. Until the rescue of Captain Kirkland, I have the honor to be in command of the percheron class transport Black Prince, as well as the storage ship Nine Days Queen. The physical and psychological condition of both regular, and replacement crew members of these vessels are within the coorporate regulations for extended off world service.
Furthermore our chief engineer, mr Donald Douglas, would also like to report, that his one seaters are in tip-top condition as well.
This is Paul Speer, Captain of the newly commissioned Percheron-class transport vessel "Berners-Lee". All main systems are working flawlessly and the crew reports no problems with it whatsoever. We are currently moored to Planet Cambridge, we are to depart soon to begin our first shipments.

Me and the chaps aboard Lionheart are still alive and well, and the ship is in top operation condition, even tho the Leeds system is a war zone.
My Yacht, the Dreamscape, is parked on Southampton shipyard, at the good care of BMMs technitians, undergoing a small weapon systems refit.
