Federation Promotion and mat farming

Well it turns out I was doing the right thing.I didn't realise it of course.
Just pure serendipity.
I was actually trying to acquire some missing mats in order to do a bit of engineering.
The Past Horizons needed some work to up the jump range, and the Kerr Avon needs some work to just improve it.
So there I was scanning some mission boards and taking missions that rewarded me with the correct mats, when up should pop a promotion opportunity mission in the Feds!
Well running some beer seemed an easy job, so off I went, found, bought and delivered the ale and accepted with grace and humility my promotion to Rear Admiral.
So, with the new rank and an upgrade path in mind, I set off to find a volcanic planet that had high grade deposits of the last of the missing mats.
Soon, the Past Horizons would be jumping 60ly plus!
