Yellow-Nape Law II (MY-N - 2022)

“All the Best Things in Life! Live on the other side of Fear!” Author unknown.

During her flight, Priscilla had busied herself reviewing the documents that Frederick has sent her and was musing that she had forgotten, just what a skilled Attorney, he is. She loved the document, its terms and the simplicity in which he had crafted the document, plus he had nicely placed Julio’s win /win approach within the overall document. She had sent him the document needed to define Mary as a Full Partner and was glad she had asked for him to craft the final document as he had handled the Buy /Sell so masterfully. Plus, she was praying that Mary would continue to focus her frustration at her and not Frederick. She checked the time and noted that Frederick’s flight was approaching Europe and was not yet, in its flight decent into Amsterdam. She called him and as he answered she told him she was so very happy with his Buy /Sell agreement. Frederick stated that was great as he had just sent it to Julio and Mary. He would work-on the Partnership document during the final hour of the flight. They spoke in generalities on just how wonderfully those two had guided MY-N over these last eight-plus months and how much they planned to enjoy this next year of MY-N’s continued growth and how blessed they are! Frederick stated he needed to complete the Partnership document as he was sure they would greet him after his bus ride over to the Main Hangar, love you sweetheart, bye.



Mary was in Julio’s office as Julio was reading aloud, the document that Frederick had sent them. As he finished, he looked up and asked Mary what was her thoughts. The only better document I have heard /read of late are your documents, sweetheart, but this is very close, Julio. Julio smiled and stated Frederick has been reading most all of my documents over the last eight months, especially the ones regarding CERN. In addition, he has always been a very skilled Attorney. Julio noted that he had gotten another document from Frederick as he sent it to the printer, while he was fast reading it at the same moment. As he felt Mary wrap her wings around him and thanked him! He smiled and stated he was not aware of it and it was clearly their older Partner’s idea. She continued to hug him as she felt Leonardo playing with her leg feathers as she stated: I would strongly recommend that you Stop what you are doing young Rooster and I mean now!! She felt Leonardo push back and looked teary-eyed at her while saying, I Love You, Mama! She looked at her husband and said, I wonder where he picked that up from? They heard the KLM 787 entering the Annex hangar paddock. She looked at Julio and stated we need to shower and try to get Leonardo’s leg work on you washed out! Come with me Leonardo, we are going to take a shower, my dear Boy.



They met Frederick as he entered the Hangar while the paddock FBO staff brought in his luggage and a cardboard case containing Julio’s favorite Rum. Leonardo was riding high on Frederick’s shoulders as he smiled widely. Frederick brought Leonardo down to carry him up the stairs. Once in Julio’s office Mary hugged Frederick and thanked him. Frederick thanked her and Julio. Tears where common as they all knew just how close this had come to a very bad conclusion. The three of them reviewed the Buy /Sell Document that Frederick had developed and upon completion they had made several minor changes and an adjustment to the signature block to update Mary’s new title. Frederick quickly completed the changes and sent a copy to Priscilla. They then reviewed the Partner Document for Mary. Over the next hour, Frederick reviewed what had caused him to veer-off in the direction he had. His recommendation is that no undertaking of size should be run by a single individual as we all need a Partner. Julio thanked him and stated that Priscilla should be here within the hour.

Earlier today, Beak called Julio and updated him on a named individuals that he had been watching and had noted that he had contacted a Sleeper Cell in Northern Germany and the movement of an express freight shipment from a known Arms Dealer in Southeastern Austria to that group. That group, under the name of an exist manufacturer in the Homburg, Germany area contacted Homburg MY-N hangar in an effort to become a MY-N Client. There was no question that they had studied MY-N International well, almost too well! Beak believed they had to have an inside contact. Beak searched that organization’s records and found that an individual that had worked for that organization as a manager until recently being hired by their Homburg hangar as a general employee for hangar and paddock support. A deep search on the individual provided ties to the Sleeper Cell. Long story short, Julio asked? Beak stated, I expect them to approach Mrs. Mac on completing the process of becoming a Client and enticing you to be part of the document signature at the Homburg hangar and attempt to kill you at that time. What is having you believe their target is to kill me? Beak stated, first what was part of that shipment? Four-Sniper series, NATO, AR 7.62 with ammo and magazines, four-handguns, 9mm series, four-hand held missiles and the normal supply of communication equipment and two-laser devises. Second, a detailed search of your travels over the last five months and who traveled with you. And, lastly, a current FBO drawing of the Homburg MY-N hangar and its surroundings. All obtained by that employee using the hangar’s Server.



Julio asked Beak to join him in his office with the documentation as I want to review it with the Partners. Julio opened the Safe and pulled out his drawing and opened it up on the large table as both Mary and Frederick leaned in and began looking at it. Leonardo had worked his way up his father’s legs and then up his chest and peered out-over the large paper that his father was pondering. He stepped onto the top of the table and looked around and then back to the paper. Julio shifted-back as he watched his Son closely examine the ever-expanding paper before him. Julio, in seeing his son, remembered something from his very early childhood memories as they flashed to the surface. His Father was doing much the same over a series of legal documents that near covered his large desk. His largest client was being sued by another organization that was using the largest law firm in town. His memory was shaken as he heard his son say, “Here Dad, Right Here!” As he placed his beak on the paper. Julio lifted the tracing paper and directly where his son had pointed was the connection he was looking for. At the same moment he remembered his Father staying Julio, dear boy, that is the very thing I was looking for my Son!! Julio smile and brought his son to him and stated, Leonardo, my dear Son, you have found it!! I love you my dear Leonardo, as he hugged his Son!



Beak had re-entered the office as Julio pointed to the connection that Leonardo had just found! He stated that this is the very event that Beak has just completed documenting. I am thinking of a ‘Preemptive Strike’ against their full chain-of-command. What say each of you? Julio elected to break the developing silence with his plan to involve Interpole on the attack on the leadership and the National German Police on the Sleeper Cell and the German organization that is acting as their cover. Frederick was reading Beak’s documentation and was shaking his head in agreement while Mary was switching between Julio’s drawing and Beak’s documentation, but also shaking her head in agreement. Beak was keeping an eye Julio with a very wide and approving smile on his face. Beak switched to listing what each group would need and when they needed to be onsite to make this strike seamless! Leonardo had slide into his Father’s lap and was napping. Frederick was the first to say that he approved of a Preemptive Strike with Mary tastily agreeing, stating she is not fluent in such an action. Beak’s smile, seem to get even larger or maybe it was the brightness of his eyes as he pushed his note pad into the center of the desk as Julio read it aloud, even with-it facing Frederick. Frederick reached for the document while opening his smart laptop and began coding Beaks’ notes. Beak stated that he was in full agreement of Julio’s assignment of duties and that each group would be eager to participate for at least the payback as each had been played by their assigned group. At that moment, Priscilla opened the door and entered the office. Frederick stated, what timing, dear heart, as he updated Priscilla on what was on the table. She looked at each of them and said, I have dreamed of doing such a thing for far too long! Julio stated that Priscilla should contact the German National Police and Frederick and Beak should contact Interpole as Mary and I need to take care of Leonardo for a few minutes, as they both left with Leonardo to use the WC.

Priscilla had moved to the far side of Julio’s desk and contacted her longtime friend at Germany’s National Police headquarters as Frederick and Beak provided a date and timing! They moved to the far other side of the Conference Table and called Beak’s contact at Interpole Headquarters. Within minutes both had sign-in from their groups. Leonardo, Mary and Julio reentered the room, with Julio smiling widely at what he saw in front of him. Julio created an action plan from the comments from each, that included the who, what, where and when, and then a list that each group would need from MY-N’s armament inventory or their own supply. Julio asked Priscilla and Frederick to call Samuel and update him from his secure phone line. Moments later they came back with Samuel’s approval as Julio called Jimmy and Julio’s Facility manager on his conference line. Julio asked the availability of the C-130J for this week Friday morning, very early, for a flight to Homburg, Germany, with Beak and Redvent onboard with a to be specified but light cargo of two-aircraft containers. As Beak stood, he noted the signature page of a stack of documents that Frederick had in front of him as he smiled and prepared to leave the room as he had much too complete and so did, they.



Julio stood and looked at his fellow Managers /Partners and stated that I have much to say, but first let me turn this meeting over to our Senior Partners for the Honor that they are about to Bestow, as he sat down. Frederick rose and asked Priscilla to join him. They both said, Mary please rise and Julio, please join us here. Mary, we, the Full Partners, are Honored to provide you with the position of Full Partner of MY-N International and all the benefits and authorizes there attached. Please sign here! Frederick requested that everyone, please remain in place while he brought out the Buy /Sell Agreement and asked that Julio please stand next to Mary as he noticed Leonardo was already standing next to his Mother. He stated; as Senior Partners, we present Julio and Mary with the Full Ownership of MY-N International with the finance documents to be completed within the next 30-days. Frederick signed in his signature block and shifted the document to Priscilla as she signed in her signature block and as they stepped aside allowed Julio to sign in his signature block as he noted it stated Full Partner and CEO, whereas Fredericks and Priscillas stated Full Partner and he shifted the document set to Mary as she signed and note her signature block read Full Partner and Councilor of the CEO. Hugs and Tears followed. Julio asked if Mary would contact the FBO to obtain ice cooler, glasses for four, a glass of water and a light snack for four. He then turned to Frederick and asked if he would collect the appropriate bottle for each Partner and place them on the table. He then turned to Pricilla and opened his wings to her for a long and close Hug! She thanked him deeply.



They reconfigured the conference table and chair placement and place the document sets in front of each of them with a cover sheet on each with Julio’s drawing rolled up and back in the safe. The FBO staffer knocked at the door and entered while Julio stood at the front of the table and started the meeting by congratulating each of MY-N Partners for the beginning of a smooth transition in our organization and may it assure solid growth and financial health long into the future. It is my hope that each of you, picked-up on our method of handling our earlier business and the vast advantage that acting in pairs and as a Group brings strength to our organization. Julio asked Frederick to pour Priscilla and himself their favorite drink, while I handle it for Mary and myself. No one missed Julio first pour a base of water in one of the glasses, while adding ice, and then, two ice cubes in the other and then poured his favorite Rum in each glass. He shifted the glass to Mary while she shifted the glass of water in front of Leonardo, as Julio raised his glass and toasted the moment with: To our success and growth dear friends. They each enjoyed the moment. Julio stated that we need to inform several individuals of the changes we have made today and let’s start with the money part as he lifted his phone and called his CFO to his office. As she knocked, she was hoping for at least something more than a somber group but was please to find a room of smiles. Mary provided a review of the agreement then a copy of it for her to work with. Julio stated that we have and will be moving a large volume of money this year and we have agreed that what you see as the correct timing to complete specific transfers of funds, we are all in agreement as our goal is to not cause any of us to be audited or to effect the financial stability of the organization over the next thirty-six months. She quickly reviewed the document and suggested that she would need several days to review and define the best timing forward. She received agreement as she congratulated Mary and the group as a whole. As she exited the room. Julio recommended a meeting of the management staff at 15:00 hours today as part of a video conference to announce the changes so that our Staff know before our, Clients and Vendors. He quickly put together an agenda for the video conference and pasted it to each Partner.

Redvent was bring together the items that he and Beak would want as part this strike. Both of them had become skilled with the use of their NATO AR 7.62 and now greatly limit use of smaller firearms and the headache of mixed ammo. With the combination of their Work Knifes, the AR’s and communication devises covers it. Beak had completed his background study of each individual and had defined, which needed to be targeted early and, which could attempt to run. Beak and Redvent reviewed their work and both smiled as they had the opportunity to step ahead and not be reacting to someone else’s plan; good, bad or indifferent. Redvent also followed Beak’s list of supply that they may need to supply the National Police and Interpole. Understanding that their hope was that both groups had listened and upgraded their supply, but they both have long ago learned to plan for the worst and rejoice if things go better. Redvent doubled checked the supply list that Beak had provided but was confused by a repeat of his and Beak’s supply as if another individual may join them. He also noted they would be arriving at the FBO’s satellite hangar and not MY-N’s hangar as the groups would meet there and travel to their assigned locations.



Carlos had called the Galveston Marina earlier and reviewed their arrival time and placement. The Marina manager thanked Carlos for approving his Owner’s tour of MY-N Atlantic. Their arrival would be shortly after mid-day and that the Marina is currently moving the unload equipment and railcars into place. The manager asked if the owner and he could board MY-N just prior to their beginning off-loading. Carlos stated that is not a problem as the Harbor Pilot needed to exit the Vessel at about the same time. A bit later, Carlos saw the Harbor Pilot boat approaching and the Tug that normally escorts them to their dockage. The Pilot was very approving of Carlos’ new Vessel and really liked the precision of the tri-drive pod configuration and the linkage with the bow-thrusters as the single joystick clearly simplifies the setting of MY-N Atlantic at dockside. The Marina Owner was watching as MY-N Atlantic quickly settled into place with precision as he had seen the near out-of-control positioning of other like Vessels of size. They met the Harbor Pilot as she exited the stairway with a bakery box. At the top of the stairway, they requested to board as Larry met them stating that Carlos was in the Helm communicating with Harbor Patrol regarding, their arrival. They completed introductions and not surprisingly, the meeting was a near duplicate of Amsterdam’s meeting with their owner. The drawings that Carla had developed locked the deal as it mirrored the direction that the Owner had wanted for his Marina. The Buy Date in August worked for him as well as he had just sold one of his personal properties and the additional time allowed him to complete that deal and prep for this one. He enjoyed the tour and lunch onboard MY-N Atlantic.



The mid-afternoon announcement of the MY-N ownership change and the addition of another Partner to the organization was viewed by the vast majority of hangar managers Worldwide and Corporate managers as little more than normal transition of management. However, their Bank and other major vendors saw it as a stabilization of the organization as many felt that change was long in coming. Rosa was far less than happy and it took Kendal near an hour for her to hear his view, as he reminded her that he and Julio would be talking Monday about his joining MY-N and it is very likely that this needed to happen to open the way for him and likely others as the management style of the organization would be changing. Back in Julio’s office, Julio completed his vision for the next nine-months. The extensive changes and additions were clearly timed well and each step built the foundation to the next step and the financial strength of the organization. No one missed that there were at least two additional threats to the organization and they could see that Julio had already released them to his Corporate Security Manager to prepare and track in advance. Frederick and Priscilla were happy with the additional system upgrades to the three main Hangars plus support staff as the volume of Client-to-Client business increases thru the year. The revenues from the three Marinas were shown beginning in late Third quarter and solidifying in the Fourth quarter as they become major players in their markets. Julio turned to Mary and stated that we need to look closely at further developing our Medical Care of our staff, looking at what Carla has developed for Carlos’ Fleet. With both Fredericks and Priscillas return flights leaving tomorrow morning, early, they elected to break for dinner at the Hangar FBO.

At 3:00-hours early Friday, Beak, Redvent and Julio exited the A-130J and met with both the German National Police and the Interpole Agents. Redvent reviewed the task ahead of them while Beak inspected what they had brought with them. He smiled; they had listened, as everything was recently issued. They loaded into the four-full sized SUVs and headed for their assigned locations. Beak and Julio were with the Interpole Agents and Redvent was with the German National Police. At 5:00-hours early, they positioned themselves with Beak placing Julio at the rear door and said, if anyone comes out, shoot first as something had gone wrong inside, please!! Julio heard the group smash the front door, next the three Flash and Bang devises where released prior to them entering, then there was a series of shots fired. The rear door crashed open as Julio recognized the Crow that exited and double shot high and again mid-mass, a moment later the second-in-charge Crow exited and Julio repeated the double shot high and again mid-mass. A couple of moment past and an Interpole agent exited as Julio saw him lifting his AR-15. Julio shot a single shot at Agent’s right shoulder just below the bone structure as the Agent dropped his AR-15 and fell to the ground. He heard Beak state that he was coming out. Julio stated, Clear, as he moved to the side of the Agent! Beak opened his set of wing cuffs and locked them on the Agent. He pulled his Work Knife and placed it in the wound and stated: talk or die here, while Julio checked the other two and verified, they were dead. The Agent spate at Beak as Beak leaned on his Knife as the Agent screamed and began talking. Three additional Agents stated they were come out of the door and stated the building is secured as they saw the two dead Crows and one of their own, while he stated he was working for the Crows. Julio looked at the Agents and stated, you know this is a zero-witness task, correct? The Captain step to Beak’s side and said, this one is mine, sir, please step back. Beak stepped back and a moment later the Captain shot his Agent once, high. Beak removed the wing cuffs and turned to Julio and smiled saying well done, Sir. Beak heard the double click on his radio and he depressed the switch and stated Clear. He heard back, Clear. They loaded into the SUVs as the back-up staff began arriving. The Captain remained as the others left for the hangar.



Beak and Redvent reviewed what occurred at each site, while Julio took notes, as the A-130J lifted skyward into the early morning sky. Julio was happy that it all had gone well and as the task have been completed as defined and that both the National Police and Interpole where able to close the file on two groups that had been chewing at their ankles for far too long. Julio was relieved that the Crow that had been hunting him, no longer can. His mental review of those moments had allowed him to see the shock in the expression of the two Crows as the last thing they saw was Julio. It provided no joy, but it did provide closure. Beak asked if he was ready to begin talking about the other two threats to the organization. Julio stated that he was. Beak stated, but first my dear friend, we need to settle what has occurred today with our God. Redvent sat next to them as they sat in a semi-circle, while Beak began with; God forgive us for what we have done this day, as all lives are precious in your eyes, dear God …



The North Atlantic had been mixed regarding the Weather systems that had provided either smooth transit of the Ocean or had ravaged during their crossing. The Big Bear had returned to an area West of Ireland with three-Merchant Style Vessels, several smaller ships but not their Navy this time. North American and EU Satellites had been watching, especially because none of this fleet had their Identification /Location devises on. Several Mega Container Vessels had passed by this group and with the exception of heavy radar pinning there had been zero contact with them. One of the Mega Container Vessel’s had reported that there may be a Submarine as part of this group as they had an object of size past through their depth monitors. Samuel had asked Julio if his Security Group could take a detailed look at this group as they sat very near the shipping lanes and an underwater passageway from the Northeast that was a favorite passageway of Submarines to travel with little to no notice. Early-on, Beak had defined and obtained the Identification Number for each server, on each of the larger Vessels, two of their smaller ships and their Satellite connection codes and assigned a Gen VI to monitor their communications. The amount of electronic surveillance equipment on all of those with servers was extensive, based on their electronic noise and variation is radio wave signals. Beak’s evaluation was they are set-up to monitor North America and EU Submarines, plus flights overhead and any ships passing within 250 Nautical miles. Beak recommended that MY-N fleet and aircraft run silent when within 300 Nautical miles of that fleet. When confronted, Samuel admitted that the three-large Vessels had poorly hidden missile launchers onboard.

Carla had completed the work list for the Crew Quarters that where not in use on MY-N Atlantic. The removal of all the room separation panels, would allow two rooms to become one, but leaving the structure segments specific for each room’s end walls, and then, separately fully open three to six spaces for even larger open areas, and the existing 13 mm steel plate totaled over nine tons removed. When completed they would move staff and complete the same on the other side for a total reduction of over 15 tons. Placing Carbon Fiber cut plates in the openings for room separators in the structural segments, which would add a bit less than a ¼ ton of weight. Carlos had identified an additional 15 plates at different places on the Vessel that they would consider when additional Carbon Fiber plates are available. There is always an advantage to reducing weight, but when one reduces weight high in a Vessel, that also helps to shift the center-of-gravity lower, which is always helpful. Jimmy had found several locations for the Kevlar panels in critical locations on the C-130J-30 aircraft, but most added some weight to the aircraft as the aluminum sheet it replaced was lighter and he needed to complete a benefit review to better understand the advantage Kevlar has as he is well aware of the use of Kevlar in fighter aircraft and armored SUV’s. Carlos and Carla were still looking at ways to incorporate Kevlar panels with there being a major difference between their lists of application locations.



Julio had completed his morning activities and his call to Jacob confirming they still had the panels and that Julio would provide a list of cut size and opening sizes per panel. After his call he was sitting at his desk reflecting on the events of very early this morning. Mary and Leonardo knocked and entered. Leonardo was filled with energy as he was just up after his morning nap. He started toward Julio at a full run but ended up flying most of the way to his Father’s open wings. Leonardo was hugging his Father as Julio asked when he had started flying so very far? Leonardo pulled back from his Father and stated, “I am a big boy now, cause I can fly!!” Julio stated that he was a big boy now, as he looked a Mary, who was smiling at her guys. Julio looked at his Son and said that we need to provide you some guidelines as just flying anywhere is not always a good idea, Son. Mary stated that she was not overly happy with him that he had gone with Beak and Redvent in the early morning hours. Julio looked at his dear Mary and stated that I am not able to ask my staff to expose themselves to extreme danger, if I am not willing too. With her normal clarity, Mary stated they are well-trained in what they do, Julio. As Julio answered, and they have well-trained me. Plus, those two would not place me where I was totally exposed as neither of them are willing to face your anger if things went poorly. Mary smiled and asked if he was ready for mid-day meal? Julio stated, in about a half an hour as I need to place time into understanding my dear sister, Rosa, as she is very unhappy with life and since they will likely be returning to Amsterdam at the end of this month, helping her becomes ever more part of the organization and family is important. Your insight will be very helpful, Mary. Mary sat in the chair across from her husband and Son and began providing what she believed Rosa needs to develop a comfort in her life, while Julio took notes.



As the three of them entered the FBO Dining area they were met by their Hangar manager who stated that CERN’s P.180 EVO has a scheduled arrival time Monday morning at 8:30-hours and Kendal had requested early meal for three onboard. Julio thanked her and asked if she could join them for Mid-Day meal as they will need some changes at the Annex Legal Suite prior to Rosa’s return to Amsterdam. As they finished their meal, Julio was surprised that Leonardo did in fact truly eat enough as the number of misses appeared to outnumber hits. Mary assured Julio that his Son was indeed full.

Julio had just entered his office as his desk phone began ringing. It was Anna and she had a call for him from Sara Carter, with Wolf News and Julio, she sounds scared to me, Sir. Julio thanked her and while he opened his smart laptop. Hi Sara, she cut him off with, Julio, I am being followed! Julio asked where she was. I am at the Homburg, Germany, Airport Hilton in the lobby, Hen’s WC. Julio stated, you still have your Motorola phone, and the same phone number? She stated, yes, why? Julio stated, turn your Barcode reader on and are you wearing your high heels? She stated, yes, why? Remove your high heels and I want you to move quick, but do not run, to the left side of the Main Lobby desk and down the Hallway. Just beyond the start of the Hallway, are two doors with one on either side. I want you to pass you phone’s camera reading above the handle on the right-side door, enter and close the door quickly behind you. As she entered the door, she noted that the door on the other side of the Hallway began to open as Julio trigged the Handicap door switch remotely. Julio directed her to the right and to open and enter the third door, close the door quickly. She entered the small room as Julio asked her to sit at the desk and to take several deep breaths and release them, slowly. I need you to ‘very slowly’ open the top drawer on the left side and slowly close it, twice!! Now open the second drawer down on the right side slowly. In the drawer is metal box, open the top and place your phone and then your broch in that box and close the box and the drawer. Call me using the phone on the desk. Julio heard the line disconnect, while he had the electronics searching the phone and broch and list the findings, plus any tracking devises. His desk phone rang.



Anna stated that Sara Carter, with Wolf News on line #6, for you Julio, bye. Hi Sara, open the center draw and about center along the back you will find a replacement Motorola phone. Set your right thumb to set a feather-print in the center of the screen and hold. She watched the phone open and heard Julio ask her to set the phone, screen-up on the top of the metal box to the right on the desk. As she set the phone down, she watched as it began downloading. Julio stated that you had two tracking devices on you, one in the broch and the other in the phone. The dummy that set this on you, used your phone as a receiver for the broch. Sara asked if she could have her phone back and Julio stated, sorry no, the devise was hardwired in place and removing it will damage the phone, but the broch, I will have it returned in a few weeks. While they spoke, he had started a backtracker on the device and determine that the device had been operating for the last four days, beginning in the early morning. Julio asked her where she had been over the last six days and where she had stayed. He quickly targeted the early days and found the point in which the device was added. He checked the Hotel and located the room and found that the adjacent room had a connecting door. He found the name of the individual that stayed in that room and noted it was the second Crow he had shot earlier this day. He noted that information and asked if she would be willing to tell him what she was working on during that period. Sara had worked with Julio for several years now and had developed a trust. She provided the story she was working and about 5-minutes into her work, Julio stated that was enough information as he had linked it to a Sleeper Cell in Homburg, Germany. Julio, are you a CIA spook? Julio stated no, zero interest in that line of work and the pay is not even close. She just smiled.



Julio asked if she would be interested in a flight to Amsterdam this early evening. She stated yes, but I need to collect my things. Not a problem Julio stated, open the door and pull-in your luggage and case. In about ten-minutes there will be a small, white, work van that will park just outside the door on the back wall of this room. Please do not exist until I clear you to do so. You will find near unbelievable communality with the driver. A couple of minutes past as they exchange light conversation. Julio stated, your ride is here, please shut the lights-off as you leave and close the door behind you, go now! Sara opened the door to find a white, small, work van and stepped in as the door closed behind her. She blinked as it was like she was looking in a mirror. Hi, Sara stated, I am your driver to MY-N hangar, I understand that you will be flying-out this early evening on our flight to Amsterdam and your name is Sara as well! In my family they call me Sar and I am guess yours call you Sara? Sara Cater, stated, no they called me Stella. Ten minutes later they both were surprised as just how similar they are especially with their liking of Julio and their depth of their family ties. Sar provided a quick review of the flight this evening and that they have an early evening meal planned at the hangar. Sara thanked her and eased back and listened to her younger sister and allowed a flood of family memories to flow.

Mrs. Mac stood in front of the hangar door awaiting the arrival of her beloved older daughter. As the Van approached the door, Stella was surprised as her mother looked shorter then she remembered, but just as slim. Stella opened the Van door and ran to the open wings of her mother. Their hug was long, warming and comforting! Far too many years had pass. She had seen the notice regarding the death of that cruel old Grey Redtail that had killed her father all those years ago, and her mother sending her to Norway to live with her Aunt, well-hidden from the long wings of that cruel old Grey Redtail. Sara was barely four months old and likely had no memories of her. Tears flowed as her Mother thanked God for granting her yet another of her Prayers. Sara approached the two and was quickly drawn into the family hug. Stella began using her sister’s name, Sara, when she entered the News Business as she understudied with an older Grey Redtail Rooster that worked for PNN and Associated Parrot over the years. With luck, he never made the connection. His retirement last year was a real transition for her as she had joined Wolf News Group early last Spring and he had gifted her his contact book when he fully retired. That and her dogged pursuit of a Story allow her to rapidly grow with Wolf News.



In the very early minutes of Sunday Morning, the Harbor Pilot eased MY-N Atlantic away from the dock and into the River Channel and out beyond the Harbor Pierheads. Shortly after, she worked her way down the stairway with her bakery box and onto the waiting Pilot boat. Carlos lifted the starboard stairway while increase speed and a minor correction of their coarse to set them for an early turn to the West under England. He had received a message from Samuel to observe the gathering of Spy Ships, West of Ireland as he remembered Julio’s warning to stay clear of that Hornets’ Nest of trouble. He elected to steer clear, but to focus his listening array of equipment on the gathering, including his sonar. He would also limit connection with aircraft flying above him until they were well clear of that gathering. They had barely completed the turn West when his systems began picking-up the electronic chatter from that group. He would be surprised, if they were not burning each other’s radar screens-out as their radar booms aligned with each other, with each turn of 360 degree turns. He wondered if this was acting as a block for the ground-based radar systems along Ireland’s coastline as it would cause an empty white hole on their screen. He elected to keep his active radar at 25 miles. He noted that one of the smaller ships was in the early process of what appeared to be a course crossing the Gulf Stream, he checked his coarse and that of the smaller Spy Ship and noted they would intersect within two hours along the Southern side of the Gulf Stream. Carlos calculated what changes to his rate of travel would cause him to arrive prior to the other Ship. He had his GEN VI software calculate a rate of increase overtime that would place the other ship well-behind them when it crossed his coarse. He notified his engineers of the change and set the change into play.



The weekend had passed with little demands, as Julio and family enjoyed a morning walk prior to early Mass and a lite mid-morning meal at a favorite eatery near the Cathedral as the Cardinal requested to join them. The Cardinal took the opportunity the catch-up on Julio’s family and to request that Julio and Mary consider funding a project, which involved the upgrade of the South gardens to include walkways, seating and gathering areas. Mary asked who would be defining the flowering trees, bushes and flowers? When the Cardinal stated it would be the group that currently oversees those things now, why? Mary stated that unless Julio and I define, obtain and plant those plantings, we are not interested as all the gardens current blossom during a single three-week period. Our goal would be to provide a place of comforting reflection over the full year. The garden should provide that and to assure that, we will select and control the design, purchase and installation of the entire garden area. The Cardinal looked a Julio as Julio smiled agreement with Mary. The Cardinal stated that he would consult and be back with them soon. Mary stated, this Wednesday, mid-day, please and here is my business card. if I do not hear from you by then, we will consider this project not approved. The Cardinal closed the meeting /mid-morning meal with a prayer. As they returned to their SUV, Julio asked Mary what she knew about the Planting Committee? Mary stated that the head of the committee assures that all plants are purchased from her Brother’s gardening supply store and what they buy is out-of-season plants and charged full price! Julio smiled. She had taken photos prior to leaving and sent them to Carla with her layout drawings as a starting point.

Julio’s phone rang and he saw that it was Kendal to confirm their meeting prior to traveling to their Banker in Old Town, Amsterdam. Julio stated that to his knowledge everything was as scheduled. Kendal stated that per Mary; Rosa and Christina are traveling with him and that Mary, Rosa and Christina will meet at the Main Hangar and travel to the Annex and that all of us would meet for lunch in your office, yes. Julio looked at Mary and got a wing-up as Julio responded that is what I just got a confirmation on, Kendal. Great, see you in the Morning, bye. Julio eased back and asked again to hear how Mary was going to bring a comfort to Rosa’s life, as she has spent a lifetime expecting someone or something that would smash her dreams, again. Julio listened closely as Mary reviewed her plan and goals. Julio was intrigued and stated that he would support her fully and sincerely hoped that this would bring Rosa’s self-confidents back along with a joy of life. He was still a child when he last saw her smile when others where not looking. He remembered the joy of being with her and experiencing her loving care of him. He looked at his dear wife and stated, whatever you need Mary, whatever you need to find and return my dear, sweet, Rosa! Mary leaned forward and said, I was where she is after the loss of my Parents. Julio moved closer and hugged Mary softly as they both felt Leonardo work his way in. They backed-up a bit as they opened for him.



Mary heard her smart laptop announce that she had an email. She opened it and noted that Carla already created the South Garden for the Cathedral and supplied a list of supplies and local contractors needed, several lay-out drawing and a 3D drawing, which also provide 360-degree viewing, plus one could select to view the garden during seven-different months of the year. She quickly called Carla and was telling her how thankful she was and how wonderful her layout is my Dear Sister. Julio was in full agreement, even after he saw the estimated cost. After the two-Sisters had covered the presentation tools that Carla had also provided, Julio recommend that Mary set an appointment with the Cardinal prior to Wednesday and provide him what Carla had created and set the project rolling before it becomes embroiled in politics. They both heard Carla agree and stated, the first one in the door has an edge and you now have the tools to lock it in your favor, bye, all of you! Mary called the Cardinal and stated that she had a full layout of the Garden project, a 3D rendering and estimated costs. I would like to meet with you Tuesday after Morning Mass. The Cardinal agreed as he, stated bye. He looked across at the Prime Minster of the Netherlands and thanked him for his advice regarding projects sponsored by MY-N International and their history of promising a great project and delivering far beyond. He smiled as he was going to enjoy shutting-down the Head of the Planting Committee before she even starts.



Julio’s phone rang as he noted that it was Carlos. Hi, Dear Brother, I am guessing you are riding along under England and likely enjoying the ride. Julio froze as he heard his older Brother not being fully sure of this moment. Julio asked, what is happening Carlos? We are a bit further West and on the Southside of the Gulf Stream. That gathering you warned me about had sent one of their smaller ships on a heading across the Gulf Stream and they have adjusted speed twice now to maintain a collision course with MY-N Atlantic as we normally ramp-up speed in this area. I am using Beak and Redvent’s tools to lock in on their satellite signals and have all of their Servers locked in. Our retaliation armament is already tracking each Vessel, plus I have the Iron-Shield ready and tracking. Julio asked if the ‘at speed’ side-shift technology will work as advertised? Carlos stated that at this speed, it is more like a 45-degree angle, but yes. Julio stated he was just guessing at this, but can you preset it into the autopilot and define how close you want to be prior to activating it? Yes, that I can easily complete. I have targeted 40 knots as our top speed as that is the fastest, I have seen any of the Mega-Container ships travel. He entered the needed data points and confirmed using 100 meters as a point of commencement distance. If they fire on us, I plan on burning all of their servers while releasing Iron-Shield and then ship-to-ship missiles. Additional, Iron-Shield and ship-to-ship missiles if they release more. Sounds like a plan Julio stated. Carlos stated, with great hope, they are bluffing and will back it all down and return to their group. 20-minutes later and MY-N Atlantic had obtained 40-Knots and were maintaining that speed. Carlos noted that the Southbound ship did not adjust speed and would pass behind them at over 400 meters. Carlos left all systems operational until they were well beyond this group. He had also mapped what the other Vessels in the group where doing and smiled as they just continued their courses. He would include it all in a document set and provide it to Julio and Beak for their review and choice to provide it to Samuel.

The P-180 EVO positioned itself for the final approach into Amsterdam and set a textbook landing as it continued onto MY-N Main Hangar and they were positioned by the Paddock staff. Julio and family stood just inside the entrance door as moments later they were deep into a family hug. Well almost everyone as Leonardo was looking at Christina not knowing who she was. Julio adjusted down to a knee and stated, Leonardo this is your sweet niece Christina and she would love a hug. Leonardo opened his wings and moments later they were both hugging, with Leonardo saying he loved her. Christina then turned and hugged her uncle Julio. Rosa and Christina, with Mary and Leonard entered the Hangar Van for the short trip to the Annex. As they entered the Law Suite, Rosa was surprised at the new colors and positioning of the conference /project tables, she ever believed that several windows had been added along the South face. As they entered Rosa’s office, she noted changes to the original layout and several addition furniture items had been added. Rosa felt comfortable in this office and liked the twin, large display screens. It was as if she had designed the office. The two Sisters began talking about what had occurred last week and the long ranging effects it will have on MY-N International and that Rosa was a very important part. Mary looked caringly at Rosa, stating that she had long listened to Julio speak lovingly of his older Sister and his want for her to regain her joy-of-life. Rosa hugged her Sister as the kids where busy creating a Fort under the main Conference table.



Yang and James were studying the Worldwide picture and it was clear that MY-N Eastern was under-pressure just to meet its current schedule. Not an issue of too much cargo, but too many stops. Whereas MY-N Ranger was running through its schedule with vast time to spare. The fix was straight forward, shift the Mediterranean route to MY-N Ranger. Yes, that meant that MY-N Eastern is just streaming through and directly past those Ports but that opened up time that they truly need in the Far East. They reconfigured the routes for both and ran a cost vs. benefit analysis and found that there was an advantage, not huge, but an advantage in route balancing, time and costs. They placed the route changes in a Portfolio and sent it to Carlos and the Partners for their review as they began structuring each route, fine tuning it, using their knowledge of currents, tides and depth of harbors based on the arrival /departure time and the effect of tidal depths.



They elected to contact Beak regarding safe passage issues based on the configurations of the new routes. Beak suggested that providing MY-N Eastern with more travel time will be helpful as we continue to see ever more problems with attacks on Vessels in areas of heavy, slower traffic and being able to allow MY-N Eastern to shift course further around those area, when needed, would add safety. Also, I saw your note regarding Western Africa and South Africa and the added time may allow you to set-up a first of the month down the West coast and the next month back-up the West coast and that reduces the lag time just sitting, waiting their turn to transiting the Suez Canal, in half, each month. Also, at this time, MY-N Eastern is having to slow its travel-rate to meet the movement rate within the heavy traffic areas. That Vessel has the same Power Plants as MY-N Switzerland and when one compares their travel-rates, there are clear advantages in allowing MY-N Eastern to use those abilities to close distance and gain time with rate-of-travel. James ran the numbers base on Beak’s recommendations and was finding days of time savings when using MY-N Switzerland travel-rates. Yang quickly assembled an addendum to their portfolio and sent it to Carlos and the Partners.

Kendal’s Bankers’ meeting was going well and with his Legal Representative with him, they were able to complete the documents need to close both the Time Travel and MARS groups, and clear CERN documents of those segments. Julio was thankful that he had followed Mary’s advice and included Anna traveling with them as she was looking at the overall interaction and was signaling Julio when she saw hesitation on either Kendal or the Bankers expressions. As they completed the signatures on the document set, Kendal told the Banker that he was leaving the employment of CERN at the end of this month. Julio stated that MY-N International had a strong interest in adding Kendal as part of our Executive Managers, responsible for Client-to-Client Sales Internationally, likely starting at some point in April.



There were congratulations all around with their Banker opening his office Safe and removing several files containing a piliferous of projects, purchases or leases for both this year and predatorial documents for the next three years with a timeline sitting on top as the Banker provided that document to Julio. Julio scanned it and smiled with Anne looking over his shoulder and joining him in the smile. The Banker then stated that this represents well-over 750 Million Euros Julio and your timeline, supports the projects using Cast Flow. Your selection of Carlos to oversee Transportation and Logistics with the supporting properties and equipment is well conceived. I understand that Rosa is returning to Amsterdam to head International Law with Mary heading International Procurement, Finance and Systems, with you overseeing International Finance, IT and Security. I also, understand that you and Mary will be sharing both of your responsibilities between the two of you. Anna had been busy taking notes and watch each of them and especially Kendal. Julio turned to Kendal and stated, none of this is possible without your increasing sales in all zones! Kendal asked; are you sure you do not want to start earlier? Julio looked at him and stated, your start date is when you want to begin. Just understand that you need to be disconnect fully from CERN and be ready to take-on the responsibility at MY-N. Kendal stood and he and Julio hugged. Julio signed several documents that authorized his Banker to begin setting the balance of 2022 plan into motion. Julio asked for an additional copy of the list of projects be provided to Anna.



Mid-day meal was ready when they entered Julio’s office. Julio gathered everyone and they touched wingtips as Julio provided a prayer of joy, unity and family. As they enjoyed lunch Julio noted that Mary had given him a thumbs up signal and Julio smiled not knowing what exactly she was happy about. He hoped it was that Rosa was on her way to stabilizing her life and her role within MY-N International. The kids where busy finding hiding places in Julio’s office. Kendal asked Julio what transportation he had available. Julio smiled and suggested that he meet with Chen and James and look at the vast interconnect transport system they had put together. One Rooster and one Aircraft is traveling the expensive way, plus you will have zero feel for what is happening in each area unless you walk into the cargo area of each aircraft and the cargo area of each hangar. The more there is, the more business in an area. The less, the more growth that is needed. Too much cargo is a sign of needing more equipment or larger equipment to support further growth. There is an actual rhythm to it that once you tune into it, you will know by simply walking through and you’re seeing what is needed. I found that flying point to point does not help one define where one’s efforts need to be applied. Plus, you are interacting with our Parrots, who are on the frontline working with our clients.

The Partners agreed to changing who will handle the Mediterranean route as Carlos found it easy to get buy-in by the two Skippers and their crew as it meant more income for MY-N Ranger’s staff and at least some time with family and friends for MY-N Eastern’s crew. Yang and James had the routes defined and the Mediterranean was simple as it was well-established. MY-N Eastern required changing Western Africa from contract carriers to the schedule MY-N Eastern could maintain with consistency as that provides the Clients with a comfort that their product will arrive in a timely manner. As to which direction to begin, well that started with Priscilla locking in a new Client in Perth (Fremantle), Australia that had their first shipment of 18-53’ high-capacity containers that needed to be transport to South Africa and they had an additional 27-53’ containers that needed delivery at a half-dozen Ports up the West Coast of Africa with several riding all the way to Amsterdam and then beyond, all existing Clients of MY-N International. In addition, this volume is consistent year around with other components arriving from MY-N Eastern serviced Ports in the Far East. As MY-N Eastern began its trip East, it quickly had them at the Suez Canal earlier by several days and found a different and much shorter wait-time, with a more open Southern end. It was surprising the additional time they had gained by simply no longer being linked to another system’s schedule, especially the Crude Oil Tanker fleet.



Julio had prepared for his morning meeting with Henry and his Client for a settlement between the Amsterdam Harbor Patrol and the Family Medical Group, LLC. At 9:00 hours, they arrived with the Owner’s Attorney. Julio had pre-set the conference table with the documents of the fifteen members of the Harbor Patrol that are current undertreatment with serious illnesses that had been exasperated by the lack of appropriate Medical care. Next was the documents that defined the balance of his clients, the specific Government requirements for the operation of a Medical Clinic and the Government requirements for the operation of a Business, specifically, the Government’s financial reporting and the needed documents to amend past documents provided. After the introductions, they sat at the table and Julio reviewed what his Medical expect had found, treatments provided to date and the anticipated Medical requirements into the future. The Owner’s Attorney stood and stated we do not believe that you have a case and. Julio stood, and said, well, we will see you in Court as he reached for his phone and asked Anna to contact Sara Carter with Wolf News, please. At that point, the Owner stood and asked; can we back this down to prior to my Attorney’s ill-advised statement, please. Julio stated, hold that Anna, I will be back with you later, bye.



The Owner asked to review the documents of all 44-Clients. As he sat the last folder down, he had tears in his eyes. As he turned to his Attorney and stated, my firm has destroyed many of these individuals’ life’s and we need to cover their costs to date and into the future. Julio, you have been far more than fair and totally honest in all of this. I understand that it was your information and help, that allowed us to cause the removal of my past Partners’ Licenses and to recover the monies they took. I trust you to put together a fair settlement as he turned to Henry and asked him to make it happen. Julio sat his phone down and pulled out a settlement document that he had prepared and provided the Owner and Henry a copy. He then asked if he should have a copy made for the Owner’s Attorney? The Owner stated, No! It is between you and Henry. 30-minutes later, Henry stated, we have a settlement and as he turned to Julio, we thank you for allowing our Clinic to continuing to support your Clients. The Owner asked if Julio’s organization needs a land Medical Base to practice from, we would be very proud to represent your Medical staff. Julio looked at him and smiled, stating, you need impress this Lady, as he passed him Carla’s Business Card and with her approval, we will strongly consider your offer.

Anna had connected Sara Carter of Wolf News incoming call with Julio. She was busy thanking him for getting her out and away from Homburg, Germany. She asked about the individual that had been following her and was shocked with the history of that individual. Julio stated that it becomes very dangerous when individuals with that history has an interest in you and they are commonly individuals that one does not want to attack attention of. Sara asked how long he had been aware of who she was. Julio stated shortly after the loss of your father. She asked why he did not say anything as Julio responded that he did not want to cause her shield of projection to be opened. What do I owe you for the rescue? Julio state, consider it my Hatch-Day gift to you. She smiled and thanked him and elected not to ask how he knew it was her Hatch-Day. She than switch to a bit of business as she asked if she could continue to fly-along on the scheduled flights of their cargo aircraft that is flying into the Ukraine. Julio stated that as she knows, there is a schedule flight later this week if that would work for you. She agreed and they updated and completed general information regarding the flight time and her need to be at their Amsterdam Annex hangar the evening in advance of the flight day as the flights leave early and as you know, there is paperwork that you need to review and sign prior to boarding. I am assuming that you wish to continue to take photos from the aircraft, please confirm with the Pilot. I strongly recommend you follow his instruction to the letter as the flights are becoming ever dicer, as if you did not know. And as before, please, no references to MY-N International. Thank you, Julio, I assure you I will follow your Pilots requirements. Julio smiled and thanked her for adhering to the rules in the past.



As MY-N Atlantic was preparing to turn to the East to above the Gulf Stream, Carlos saw the information box that the GEN VI Servers had detected that a USN Submarine had slipped into their sound shadow. He elected to not call Samuel as he would prefer that ‘they’ believed had MY-N had not seen them. In short, he elected to play the game as this guy may just dive deep in a couple of hours and disappear into the depths. Carla entered the Helm with dinner stating that she had put a little something together for them, while smiling widely at her Rooster. She asked if they were still planning on a timed crossing, testing Atlantic’s upper speed range, fuel usage rates and stability at speed. He smiled and stated that is the plan sweetheart. She noted the information box and asked if the Sub could keep-up? Carlos stated that he could not tell her as that would be releasing Top Secret information, while he smiled, lets see! He had prepared a program that included the data collection and ramp-up speed and entered it after he had confirmed with his Engineers of his plans. He had included a time and distant as part of the program that assure, they were traveling no closer than 400 miles of the Big Bear’s gathering still sitting West of Ireland. Carla stated that with the exception of the read-outs, there was no change in the general feel of the MY-N. Two hours later, MY-N Atlantic had obtained the targeted speed and settled, holding that speed as the instruments monitored and recorded the information. The Submarine had gone deep and was gone during the speed ramp-up. Far in advance of the 400-mile point, MY-N Atlantic began a staged decrease in overall speed returning to 40 knots



MY-N Atlantic was passing under England and preparing to cross the English Channel letting the GEN VI Server select a passageway between the Channel traffic. Larry and Carlos were reviewing the information developed during their time-run earlier on the trip over with two of their Engineers in attendance. MY-N had established some astounding numbers and some of them where true eye-opening regarding the advantages of their Hull’s design, the tri-engine configuration and the very minor adjustments that the pods had positioned separately from each other, which further supported the stabilities they are seeing. Carlos requested the Gen VI to rerun the numbers using a Hull length of 1400'+ and approved it. All of them were surprised as the results improved with the Hull’s additional length and width it was clearly enhancing its lift. Carlos suggested that they increase the weight with cargo for the additional length. The only change was an increase in fuel usage as torque demands increased, but it was not unreasonable at all. Carlos added the data supplied by the Pod /Propeller manufacturer if they used a contra-rotating propeller set configuration per pod. The results had the group pondering the results and asking what adding that configuration would provide on their existing Vessel? The GEN VI signaled approval required for crossing the English channel as Carlos reviewed it and approved the change in course as Larry stood at the Helm. Carlos entered the Propeller manufacturers software to the data that was just collected from the speed run and approved the data evacuation. Based on the responses, Larry shifted one of his screens to the results, as he asked if this configuration used the variable propellers for each propeller? Carlo stated, yes! The engineers busied themselves creating a proposal to upgrade the current propellers, ASAP!

Carla had provided a list of Harbor Patrol members that would be part of their next visit to Amsterdam from the Harbor Patrol for their second series of medical examinations and noted that separately their Commander and his wife would be joining Carlos and her for evening dinner as she spoke with Chris. She contacted Carlos and asked if he had a solid date and time for our dinner with the Commander and his wife? Not surprising, Carlos stated he would be back with her. She smiled as she knew that her Rooster was busy with his Dream Team reviewing the speed trail they had just completed and are likely testing the full abilities of their Quad, GEN VI Servers. With the smiles she was seeing earlier, they are also busy putting together a proposal of some sort. And that, Julio likely knew that they were busy creating a new money-hole requirement of some type, but that it would more than off-set its costs.



Carla received a call from the owner of the Clinic who’s doctors had not provide proper care to her Clients thanking her for her work. He asked if she would be open to his visiting her prior to her seeing her clients this Friday morning, please. She agreed and provided information on obtaining access to the Marina. She then called Julio and informed him of her visitor, Friday morning and asked if he wanted to be there. Julio stated that he trusted her judgment totally and asked if Mary had spoken to her about duplicating what she has in place on MY-N Vessels for our Main Hangar in Amsterdam. She stated that Mary had spoken about that subject, why. Julio stated that it is ‘possible’ that the good Doctor maybe looking to expanding his office to support MY-N Amsterdam using MY-N Transportation Group assigned staff. Sounds like you have this planned and ready to go Julio. Not true, my dear Sister. You know me well-enough that I do not stomp around in areas that I am not proficient, correct? Carla chuckled a bit and agreed with her Brother. This project is totally between you and Mary. My goal is to just sign-off on the monies for a truly excellent facility for the Harbor Police and MY-N staff. Love you dear Sister, bye!



As MY-N Atlantic approached Amsterdam and was met by the Pilot Boat and the assist Tugboat as the Morning Sun was just barely raising in the East. She met Carlos in the Helm and stated that his timing was near perfect as the Dredge crew had just completed work in the area that you commonly dock last night. Carlos smiled and looked upriver to the newly lighted area where they would dock. She turned by rotating the control knob as MY-N Atlantic turned on her axis and became parallel with the dock as she side-shifted MY-N to very near the dock as the deck crew sent the lines to the dock crew who set the large nylon rope loops as the deck crew tightened the rope moving MY-N against its bumpers. She then signaled their arrival. She quickly said her goodbyes as yet another Vessel was entering the Port. She thanked Chris as he handed her a bakery box as she started down the stairway. Within minutes the loader had been set in place and they began unloading MY-N Atlantic as the railcars where set under the loader. Larry took over the Helm as Carlos entered his cabin to join Carla as she slept.

Julio turned to see Mary and Rosa enter his office, she asked Leonardo if he was ready for mid-day meal. He ran to his mother and was jumping-up and down near her claws saying, yes, yes, yes! But not before Julio turned and marking the new point that his Son’s beak touched the drawing. See Mary, this is what our Leonardo, pointed-out this morning as he shifted to the point he marked earlier. Mary asked Leonardo, did you help your Father in finding this, as she pointed to Julio’s mark. He giggled and smiled widely saying, I helped!! The mid-day meal was a joy, but Julio was still unsure at just how much Leonardo eat or shared. Once back in Julio’s office, Leonardo, flew to his Dad’s chair to the surprise of his Parents. They looked at each other and stated, he has clearly been practicing as his landing was just a bit to good for pure luck. Rosa stated that she was enjoying being back in Amsterdam and working with Mary. Julio has been as happy as Rosa had quickly developed a strong relationship with her staff and they had quickly upgraded the organization’s Legal documents and had prepared the contracts for leasing two-additional jumbo aircraft, plus the replacement of two. Julio stated that he had contacted both Boeing and KLM regarding meeting at Amsterdam this time for the Lease discussions. After mid-day meal, the four of them reviewed the contracts discussing the fine points of the agreement and whether they needed to create a package agreement that adjusted wording in earlier documents and included all leased aircraft, including retirement timelines of their older aircraft under-lease. Julio asked that Rosa prepare for such an evitability as with rising costs of operation, we clearly need to move in that direction.



Hi Leonardo, I hear you are a big boy now and you can fly, is that true? Leonardo was smiling and giggling as he said, I am Big Boy Now! As Kendal smiled with him and sat at Julio’s conference table. Anna had set five-copies for the up-coming Product Purchase agreement, review today, as he asked if Kendal’s discussions with their hanger managers had been enlightening. Kendal stated that it had been very enlightening as has the being part of the turnaround of the aircraft on the paddock of the jumbo jets, but also, the Reginal C-130J-30 aircraft. I am picking up on your statement regarding a rhythm /flow to the movement of the cargo. I will be traveling to the European hangars starting next week and by Months-end, traveling to North America to complete the same there. I have also, gotten the copy of our largest customer’s vendors, thank you Julio, and will be visiting them, especially those that are not yet part of our system, while traveling both here and while I am in North America. The truth is, I am enjoying being part of MY-N International. Well, Leonardo, what do you think of that my Son? Leonardo smiled and asked if he could also be part of MY-N? Julio looked at his Son and stated that is our hope Son. Leonardo smiled and giggled happily. Julio looked at Kendal and asked whether Christina had been visiting /working with her mother yet, as she has a keen mind and we really want her to see the organization and determine if she wants to be part of it, or strike-out on her own, as many of our clients have such programs available. I would hope that Rosa and you have or are talking-about Christina traveling with you in the near future as well?



Julio’s phone rang with Anna stating that Jacob had arrived and is waiting for you in the lobby area. Julio thanked her and asked if Kendal would like to join him and Leonardo in their meeting with Jacob? Kendal stated he would. They arrived in the lobby and greeted Jacob as Julio asked if he enjoyed his flight in. Jacob stated that he did and that this was the first time he had flow on a P.180 EVO as Jimmy entered the lobby. They preceded up to Julio’s office and as they entered Kendal had noted that the conference table had been re-set with documents that clearly involved Jacob’s organization and an agreement between them and MY-N’s Transportation group. Jacob was very interested in their application of what they had supplied and if there where additional applications being considered. Julio stated that both Jimmy and Carlos are considering additional applications and that he had posed the question to his IT staff regarding use as a cover for their Servers, especially those here in Europe. That caught Jacob’s attention as he had never considered such an application. Julio remined him that they are in the very early review. They had just finished reviewing the agreement as Julio turned the meeting over to Jimmy and sat back and began taking notes. As Jimmy and Jacob finished their discussion, Julio made a couple of adjustments in the agreement and provided it to Anna. Moments later she was back and provided copies for signature. Julio completed an additional review and signed the documents and provided it to Jacob for his signature. Jimmy and Jacob left to visit the Annex as Julio, Kendal and Leonardo remained in his office. Julio looked at Kendal and asked if he had any questions. Kendal asked, why offer them Client status, as it seems that MY-N is their only customer within our vast group. Julio smiled and stated: Consider our Client base and start naming the number of new customers they will have within our group before the end of this year?

Much earlier...
The Rickeybird wasn't exactly WELL-connected, but he was indeed relevantly-connected. An old friend who was also a major importer of spirits let it slip to the Rickeybird that Julio was expecting a large shipment of that very special rum. The old reprobate dropped by the importer's warehouse just long enough to "borrow" a bottle, leaving a note in its place thanking Julio for the little favor. As he went on his merry way, he opened the bottle, grinned and tossed Julio a salute.

Mid-afternoon, Julio visited Rosa at the Annex, Law Suite, to review their upcoming meeting with KLM and Boeing. She had printed two document sets and was enjoying watching Julio review the document as she could see that he was also preparing to present it. Julio enjoyed the flow of the agreement and his only question was if their CFO had reviewed the monies segment as Rosa stated that she had and approved the Lease Payment structure based on overall monthly flight distance traveled. Julio double-checked the section regarding rotating the older aircraft out of the fleet and replacing them with the newest series. They both reviewed the offers from British Air, United, Air France with Delta provided the most aggressive offer. Rosa adjusted the agreement to align with Delta’s offer as they would negotiate to match. Julio smiled at his older Sister and stated that she seems happier and he was enjoying her smile and her laughter as he had missed it so. She hugged her Brother and thanked him. With a very serious look, she asked what his plans are for Christina? Julio smiled widely and stated for her to be very happy with whatever she chooses as her life path. It is my hope that we provide her the opportunities so she sees all that she can choose from. Rosa, I recall my first visit to Amsterdam all those years ago when Priscila sent me in one of your large classrooms and I listened to you provide a lesson in Contract Law. It was memorizing, a joy to relive a class I had several years prior, but your presentation was alive. I strongly believe it is why I enjoy creating /presenting contracts today, as he smiled. She hugged him and joined him in his smile.



Sara Carter with Wolf News arrived at Amsterdam MY-N Annex hangar early evening the day prior to the C-130J-30 flight. She was introduced to Jimmy, again, after which, they visited the Legal Suite with Rosa for a review of the updated legal documents and a discussion of the known dangers involved travel on a non-scheduled, non-passenger cargo aircraft. After signatures, Jimmy took her to see the aircraft and re-meet the pilots. After a walk-around, they entered by way of the ramp and worked their way to the wider, newly installed passenger /amenities segment. Sara saw immediately that Julio was right, there are no windows in this one either. As they entered the two-level cockpit, they talked with the Pilot and Co-pilot. Chester stated that he had talked to Julio regarding you’re want to continue taking photograph /Video of what is happening on and along the boarder area. Please understand that we are limited in how close we come to boarder /conflict areas and beyond that point is a no-go area and we will not violate that area. Sara stated that she understood. This, like prior flights, she would be in the lower jump-seat area. As part of the documentation and agreements that you signed and, as before, you clearly understand that there will be zero photos of the aircraft or the crew, correct. She stated she understood. She asked if she could sit in the Starboard jump seat, again. Chester suggested that based on wind direction, at our landing site, I will recommend that you sit on the Port side. Chester reviewed normal aircraft passenger pre-flight review. Chester stated that she would be staying in one the Pilot overnight rooms and that the FBO staff will wake you at 3:00 hours. We will be having first meal onboard prior to our ‘fly-over’ our Poland hangar at FL-300, as we will not be landing on the way in.



The Marina manager and his wife where speaking about the vast changes that are underway as the transfer of ownership had occurred and work had begun to enhance the Marina. When MY-N Atlantic had left very early, near three weeks ago, the dredging had begun increasing the depth along the pier that they have been docking to allow them to begin setting heavier loads (more 53’-containers) onboard. The dredging spoils were being used to fill dry lowlands to the far North end of the Marina property, an area that Carla had defined as open grassland, to be cut mid-Summer and mid-Fall. The rolling hills affect added to the natural appeal of the area. The outer perimeter of the property had been cleared of the build-up of seafaring hulls, driftwood and trash over the years. MY-N had offered the Amsterdam Navel Museum review of the old hulls and artifacts for anything of use for their displays. To everyone’s surprise several great finds where made, plus numerous small to medium sized artifacts. Once cleared, the additional open acreage was amazing. Work had begun on the new drydock that Carla had defined as 2400+’ which was originally designed to allow work on two 1000+’ Vessels, at the same time, but the industry is rapidly changing to new builds surpassing 1600’ implied use for new builds as well. The manager elected to ask Carlos if MY-N had such an interest? Carlos smiled widely and stated they are activity considering such a project.

Julio, Mary, Leonardo and Anna where reviewing their meetings and travel schedule for the coming week as Mary suggest that Anna be even more a part of Julio’s travels and meetings as she has become a very important part of guiding contractual meetings and especially with the ever-increasing monies that the agreements are now including, we need her to be part of the meetings, Julio. Julio agreed and asked Anna if she would be open to such additional involvement? Anna smiled and stated that she has enjoyed her additional involvement to date and would be happy to continue to expand her involvement. Leonardo was searching under Julio’s desk for the fabled escape hatch to the secret mystery room, sadly his parents have been speaking in symbols regarding the liquor cabinet, but he was enjoying himself, none the less. The FBO staff knocked and entered with the case of Admiral’s Grade Caribbean Rum and asked where Julio wanted it, as Julio stated next to the cabinet, please. He noted the case was opened and he fully opened the case to find a bottle missing and a note. Julio read the note and smiled as he provided the note to Mary. Julio’s mobile phone rang as Leonardo answered it, to his surprise it was his Uncle Car (Carlos) as he smiled and said, Hi Car! Leonardo listened and gave the phone to his Father with a big smile on his face, Uncle Car, Daddy!



As always, three-hundred hours came very early for Sara Carter, as the FOB staff woke her and stated that it is cold this morning, but it will warm during the day. You may want to layer to be able to adjust today. Your flight will be boarding at 3:50 hours with departure quickly after. Do you want a snack to hold you over until they have first meal onboard the aircraft? She answered with a yes. At 3:45 hours she appears at the doorway to the paddock and was directed to the waiting aircraft with the FBO staff helping her with her small carry-on. Years of travel had conditioned her to pack lightly and with easy, she boarded and placed her carry-on in the secure locker in the lower cockpit area. The crew were busy with last minute activities as she was shown to her jump seat and instructed to buckle in as the aircraft would be underway shortly. No sooner than she had set her seatbelt, the first of the four engines started quickly followed by the others. She clearly heard the ramp close as the noise level dropped immensely. Shortly thereafter, the aircraft began to move as she watch though her window. Minutes later, the C-130J-30 lifted into the night sky and turned slowly as it climbed to the East. The Loadmaster entered the passenger’s segment and sealed the door, which resulted in again another drop in background noise. Sara noted that this longer bodied aircraft had the general feel of a passenger jet, but a bit more engine /prop noise. He had sat in the Starboard jump seat and buckled in, leaned back and fell asleep. She also leaned back an began to sleep.



As they approached the first Ukraine Airport, Chester spoke to Sara over the intercom and apprised her that the wind was from the East and as a result, the Boarder would be on the Port (her) side. We are far enough away that you will not see it, but if there is any military activity, you may see some explosions in the Northern skyline as the Ukraine’s have been very busy. Things are becoming ever more tense and as a result we will be evacuating several individuals. They are European Government staff and I have been asked that you stay in the Cockpit while we unload, load and take-on the passengers. Sara stated that she understood, but it had drawn her interest. She would reframe from looking as she wanted to continue flying this route for as long as possible and getting tossed-off now would end future travel immediately. As they prepared for take-off, Chester was far more formal regarding instructions and included a warning that the take-off will be rapid and be prepared for possible aggressive flight maneuvers. With the exception of the climb-out, everything was normal. It was a short hour and a half to the next Ukraine Airport as they began the landing sequence shortly after obtained FY-800. Chester anounced that we would be landing shortly and that we are much closer to the Boarder, please assure that your seatbelts are tight as we will be descending rapidly. Sara noted that the landing was pure military in style, but still a very smooth touch-down. They moved far more quickly to the MY-N hangar and as they pulled onto the paddock, she could hear the ramp descending prior to the aircraft coming to a rest.

Everything was much quicker as part of this turnaround. As the last passenger stepped onto the ramp, it began lifting. With the aircraft already moving, the Loadmaster entered and closed the passenger area and reviewed the instructions with the passengers, but clearly stated that the take-off would be quick, raise rapidly and that there would be aggressive flight maneuvers as they lifted to the East and then to the Southwest. True to his words this was a very different take-off as it felt that Chester had the aircraft exerting full-power and it felt like the aircraft was climbing near vertical. Although, she could see it was not. She also saw a light stream vertical into the sky to their North and it appeared to turn in their direction. As it approached, she saw her window light-up as her aircraft launched its defensive, magnesium countermeasures, followed by one of the wing mounted missiles launching and streamed toward the launch-site. She had prepared her camera and had trained it toward the horizon in the general direction of the launch site area. Although her camera was ready and she triggered the auto shutter using fifteen second sequences, she was unprepared for the number of additional and size of the following explosions as her camera continued to collect the digital photo stream, including a fire that had begun, near the middle of the explosions. She was surprised and puzzled at the additional explosions as they extended both East and West away from the center.



She would want to speak to Chester regarding what happened on the ground. The fire continued to grow and increase in size and expansiveness on the Northern horizon. The size was concerning to Chester as he messaged Julio via the onboard, twin, Next-GEN VI, Smart Laptop. As Julio received the message, he checked to see if their GEN VI Server system had launched an attack on that Camp’s severs. He also saw the WIFI linked photos that Sara was taking and noted the large fire that developed near the center of the explosions and believed that MY-N’s Servers had, moments later, he received confirmation. Ten minutes later, he noted that Anna was calling him as he answered, Yes, Anna. Anna stated that Samuel was on line #8, sir. He thanked her and switched lines and started by saying, I am guessing you saw the same message, yes? Samuel stated he had. As Julio asked; What?? They do not learn that leaving an Ammo-Dump near missile launchers is inherently a bad idea?? Samuel roared in laughter and guessed they had not. He asked if he could have copies of Sara’s photos. Julio stated that Samuel will need to change the date and time code information as it will be another hour before Sara will be able to send photos to her editor and a short-time after that before they spread within her organization and MY-N would prefer that leaks not occur until after that transfer had occurred, correct?? Samuel stated, no they would not want that! Julio messaged Chester to review Sara’s photos and ask her not to send any photos prior to and including the actual first ground explosion as we do not need any evidence of a missile falling on to the launcher pad. Chester response was spot-on: Roger, that Sir!



As they crossed the Western Boarder of the Ukraine, Chester turned the controls over to his Co-pilot and when descended the ladder to see Sara. Chester stated, I am guessing you will want to send ‘some’ of the photos to your Editor, yes? She stated yes, she would appreciate doing that! I am guessing you have that technology onboard. Chester stated, yes, but I wish to ask you a great favor Sara. Please do not send any photos prior or include that first actual ground exposition, as many lives will depend on that choice, Sara. Sara knew that if they had that technology onboard, he could also selectively review and send what he chose. She continued to fall in love with the Staff of MY-N International and was coming to understand why her mother trusted Julio so deeply. She smiled at Chester and said, not to worry, Sir, I understand completely. Chester provided her a cord and showed her where to connect it on her camera, after she had edited the data file first. She crossed her claws and hoped that she would never regrate this moment. She finished sending the data and followed with a satellite call to her Editor stating that the photos are from a private drone she had contracted. This would not be the first time she would not be fully truthful regarding this group of sources, as long into the future, she would recall this moment, knowing that she never did regrate it as it opened huge doors inside of MY-N International and beyond to information far in-advance of her competitors.
