Re: Recovering A Long Shot
"Ms. Brandenberg, sorry we didn't have much time to get acquainted, things have been pretty hectic. I want to personally thank you for coming to answer any questions concerning the Long Shot, she's a very interesting ship."
Picking up documentation about the Long Shot, "We have been discussing a number of issues concerning the ship...
1. The fuel situation, it doesn't make sense to have a jump-3 ship, which consumes 180 tons of fuel, to only have enough fuel to make that jump, and then have no maneuver fuel (or for life support/etc), is there something we are missing?
2. I have a Engineer rating/maneuver-1, I was looking at the maneuver-3 engines X2 configuration, and taking into account the computers' capability...there's something strange in their set-up, can you explain that?
3. One of the most puzzling things, the repair drones in the ship's paperwork lists them at an astronomical price, basically 20 MCr. each, is there some clerical error or something else?
4. The legal proceedings about the ship is, well, very out of the ordinary, can you explain that?
5. For a 100 year old, jump converted SDB (TL-14), there is still a tremendous amount of military/intelligence grade hardware/upgrades to the ship, can you elaborate on that?
I want to apologize if this seems like an interrogation, but, honestly, I am extremely intrigued about this ship. "
