IMC Transport reaches Ord Mantell safely despite drunk captain!

Date: 090309
Planet: Tatooine/Naboo System/Ord Mantell
Region: Farpoint Valley/Nova Orion Station

Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).

A week ago, the Intergalactic Mining Company sent another transport from with an ore cargo - aluminium this time - from Tatooine to the Nova Orion Station in Ord Mantell. As a few weeks before the ore eas transported by the Vigo-Class "Forlorn Hope", captained by Aenius Bosk.

The ship was escorted by an X-Wing strike fighter piloted by Chalbow. In the Naboo system it was attacked by an ARC_170 raider, which managed to disable the X-Wing but was shot down by the "Forlorn Hope"'s gunners.



From what is known though the rumors about Captain Bosk's alcohol problem were validated. Anonymous crew members were quoted with "I'd wear a vacuum suit 24/7 while on his ship, never know when he rams a station or asteroid looking for his bottle." This prompted an investigation by the RSF but so far nothing has come of it - yet.

IMC Stock rose 2 % following the transport.
