Both too much and too little, I would say.  That looks more like someone's day planner than a chronology.

Okay this event :

Quote330-1117  Mertactor Breakfest   March 8, 5638
Ad placed in the JTAS from Mertactor/DISTRICT 268.

331-1117  40 to 50 ships lift off   MARCH 9, 5638
The Great Mertactor Merchant Lift off & Launch defiance

Our "Heroes" - the crew of the IMS Margaret Thatcher had been sneaked out of a fancy Bar/Restaurant that was made out of a converted stsrship hull part.  The breakfast refrred to was at the home of another merchant captain named Nigel Tsung.  Sheltered there were the ship's commander: Anat Nesher, the engineer: Jason "Kilroy" Fitzpatrick, and their commo officer and starboard gunner : Akiri Kazonyi.

 In the confusion of that police raid on the bar , their Navigator, BJ Scott got lost in streets and crowd as a guy she was dancing with wanted to continue getting "friendly" in a nearby alley . (more about that some other time)

The morning after that breakfast they turn on the local news and see that 40 to 50 other merchant ships have repainted their hulls to resemble the paint scheme of the Maggie Thatcher.  They have also ALL painted the name  Margaret Thatcher on their hills to throw off Imperium authorities as to which ship is the REAL Maggie Thatcher.

 After much sneaking around...all of the crew make it back to ship . They coordinate wth the other sarship crews - and they ALL launch off or take off without authorization from Mertactor Down Port traffic authority.  The cockpit crews of all the ships worked it out ahead of time and agreed on special rotating radion frequencies to to stay in synch with each other.

 Right before the big Launch off , Kilroy placed an ad in the JTAS  that counter challenged the Marcucci (a notorious Pirate Vessel) to a showdown in the Mewey/Five Sisters star system in 3 months time.

 I know I'm forgetting some stuff - like telling all of you why that many merchant vessels had been grounded at Mertactor downport.
