History

In March 3135, the Merchant-class DropShip Burning Starways under captain Hector Ian was entering St. Andre when it was fully checked by Capellan Confederation agents.[1]

Notes

The Dark Age: 3135 PDS Journals clearly states that the Burning Starways is a Merchant-class DropShip. However, there is no Merchant-class DropShip in canon other than this reference. It is probable that the original author confused the Merchant-class JumpShip with a DropShip and thus the Burning Starways is actually another type of DropShip class.
