The newspaper “Pilot Chronicles” has been founded at Y10D70, with the goal to keep the members of the Fifth Imperial Fleet informed about current important events concerning just the fleet and the Empire as well. But at the current stage the newspaper is work in progress.


The Beginning

The basic idea of a fleet newspaper was the product of several different persons. Everything started with the idea of small personal log entries in the holonet. This idea was extended by Flight Corporal Ardath Lemeth to the point that she not just informed the fleet members about her personal news but also summarized current events. Most of the members of the Fifth Fleet soon started following her good written articles. At this point she gained the attention of CoS Commander Igneus Esh. He offered her to found a newspaper for the Fifth Imperial Fleet. She was very pleased by this idea and asked Vice Admiral Overmind in an official report for his permission to found the newspaper. This request was approved by Overmind in Y10D66.


At this point the whole fleet got involved. There were many members of the fleet, who were so pleased by this idea that they volunteered to help. Soon some pilots got together and formed the newspaper team. This was around Year 10, Day 70. They've chosen Ensign Cyrus Minx-Imperium to be the editor-in-chief, not only because of his experience in the Imperial News Bureau. The second editor is Commander Igneus Esh. Aradath Lemeth chose a career as a reporter, but the editor-in-chief resisted and offered her a position as junior editor. She is always there, where help is needed. Flight Sergeant Melkhior Imperium is the proof-reader, Crewman FC Jack Marshall offered himself as typesetter and Flight Sergeant Alan Smith volunteered to help with the design. The current reporters of the "Pilot Chronicles" are Command Flight Officer Heron Nightfellow and Flight Sergeant Havoc Suzigan. With the approval of the basic structure a poll in the Holonet was started to choose a name. After that a IRC channel was opened and a special subforum for the coordination of the newspaper was created.


Current Changes

On Y10D84 the fleet got the sad message Commander Igneus Esh is planning to leave the Fifth Imperial Fleet and so is forced to quit his assignment. On Y10D88 Flight Sergeant Alan Smith decided to change the branch and so he also had to quit. His position is currently covered by Flight Corporal Ardath Lemeth.


Issues

The release of the first issue is planned for March.
