I spend the night at Fuller Colony in Mizo. This was the end of a nice run from the Aditi system. I smuggled two loads of personal weapons into Thomas Terminal in HIP 9774 for a nice 5 mil profit. I was able to sneak into the station without being scanned. On the way to HIP 9774 I was interdicted too close to the star and ended up using two heatsinks. I realized I only had one heatsink left as I was boosting into Thomas Terminal with my heat vents closed. Luckily I only needed one right when I entered the station. All in all a good run. I was interdicted by an expert FDL. I actually was doing quite well in the fight until the end when he rammed into me. Luckily I had taken his shields down and most of his hull when we hit. The collision killed him and left me with 40% hull. KAA is a great ship, but damn she is expensive to repair. The FDL did give me a nice 100k empire bounty that I was able to collect once I arrived at Thomas Terminal. I think the plan for today will to head back out to Aditi and load up some more long range trade and smuggling. Aditi is in civil war and I’ve found a nice profit running deliveries for both sides. Another day in the void.Log Additon --------------------------------
I had a good day of smuggling from Aditi. I wasn't scanned at the 3 stations I snuck into. Mad a very nice profit. At Murakami Ring in LTT 1272 I saw that one of the factions was in famine. I checked my trade computer and found a Ag station only 50 LY away. I flew out to the station (Crown Ring in Quechua), that had a good price on Animal Meat. I brought back about 100 tons of mean to Murakami Ring. I made about 400 cr a ton profit. Not the amount of profit I was expecting with a famine going on.
On my way back to Murakami I was interdicted while entering star information into my trade computer. Is was a federal dropship that I didn't think would be a problem. I was mistaken. This dropship was packing rail guns that shredded Kaa. The dropshop destroyed my cargo hatch. I though that next I was going to see my full cargo hold (192 tons) spill out into space. I was carrying the animal meat for Murakami as well as 4 loads of high value mission cargo. As I desperately boosted away and charged the frameshift, I checked my inventory list and noticed that everything was where it was supposed to. Good ol Kaa, she kept her guts in even when her cargo hatch was destroyed! I was able to make it to Murakami Ring and get everything repaired. I think I got very lucky with the cargo hatch!
I've entered the hanger and turned off the ship for the night. I'll spend the night here in Murakami Ring and tomorrow finish up the rest of the delivery's. Today was a good day!
