Take what information I can find about the repeater locations and figure 
out what buildings are likely serviced by that repeater and see if there 
are any local locations that I think our patron might be located.     I 
will also leave a message asking Sir Jace to check in.  Then I'll ping 
Anousheh as well.

Go out into the Shipyard and strike up a conversation with one of the teamsters servicing our ship.   Start the conversation out talking about moving some of our speculative cargo, perhaps the porn videos.  Lead the conversation talking smack about my cocky XO who thinks he's the hotest pilot in the sector though he's good, I bet there are pilots here who could fly circles around him.

Ideally that will get them talking about hot pilots and see if he can tie them to Lt. Kerenikh.  Hopefully I can get names and a count of pilots under his leadership and perhaps what kind of hardware they fly.  I'll work a couple of different dock hands if necessary (and if I can find leads on moving some of this cargo . . .)

Next head into the starport, and visit a dive that pilots and INS personell would likely hangout at and see whats going on there, buy a few rounds for key subjects who might have some loose lips.

If I get real lucky I might from some Chief Petty Officer who would give this old sailor a tour of the local station and visually inspect the equipment.

Then we will see how sucessful I am and move on from there.
