Eye on Achenar News Team POV
"This is Kelly Sanderson reporting to you live for Eye on Achenar. The Prifma Taskforce arrived in Achenar and entered orbit around Capitol today. It then formed up and is flying in a graceful formation over The City. While Senator Rebia has been in the system for the past 8 to 9 months now, only the Majestic Class Interdictor I.N.V. Stellar Dragon and its complement of support vessels commanded by Commodore Thorne, were in the system along with the Gutamaya Cutter I.N.V. Serenity, the Senator's Personal Transport. To witness the full strength of Senator Rebia's Taskforce. Which includes both the Majestic Class Interdictor I.N.V. Praesidium and the rest of the Rebia fleet under the command of Admiral Jaques and the Majestic Class Interdictor I.N.V. Atticus and the rest of what used to be the Loren fleet which is under the command of Admiral Brice. And the is a wonder to behold. After all it's not every day that we get to see three Majestic Class Interdictors and the numerous other support vessels. Especially flying in formation like this." The reporter, Kelly Sanderson, paused as the gentle rumble of numerous ships flying in the background changed. Then she turned and looked in the direction of the noises. "It appears that a Gutamaya Clipper has taken off and joined the procession. At the head of the formation in front of the I.N.V. Serenity." The camera focuses on the stern of the Clipper as it banked slightly into a turn to Port that takes it along the flight corridor that had been cleared for the Senator's ships to make their display flight through.
"It appears that the Senator's fleet is just going to accept the new head of the formation for now." Kelly Sanderson says as the Clipper continues to lead the way before with another roar of the engines the Clipper fires its afterburners boosting up to the top speed and pulling up heading towards orbit before it initiates a low wake jump into supercruise. "That pilot was certainly bold to pull such a stunt. They were not only entering a section of airspace that has been restricted for today's event but they also cut off the Senator's personal transport, exceeded the maximum speed of 100 meters per hour, among other numerous flight regulations. All of which the Imperial Flight Operations Bureau takes very seriously. Especially when important individuals are involved." Then Kelly paused and tapped an earpiece. "Hmm, Um huh, Oh?" The reporter raises an eyebrow and then looks up at the sky above the news speeder. Then back at the camera. "I have just been informed that the Clipper has jumped out of the system and it has a bounty of 35,000 credits attached to the ship. It appears that the pilot may have gotten away for now but imperial justice is usually dispensed swiftly and appropriately."
