Okay, I think this is what I'm going to run next week. Lady Blackbird is on the run from an arranged marriage to Count Carlowe. She hired a smuggler skyship, The Owl, to take her from her palace on the Imperial world of Ilysium to the far reaches of the Remnants, so she could be with her once secret lover: the pirate king Uriah Flint.
However, just before reaching the halfway point of Haven, The Owl was pursued and captured by the Imperial cruiser Hand of Sorrow, under charges of flying a false flag.
Even now, Lady Blackbird, her bodyguard, and the crew of The Owl are detained in the brig, while the Imperial commander runs the smuggler ship’s registry over the wireless. It’s only a matter of time before they discover the outstanding warrants and learn that The Owl is owned by none other than the infamous outcast, Cyrus Vance.
How will Lady Blackbird and the others escape the Hand of Sorrow?
What dangers lie in their path?
Will they be able to find the secret lair of the pirate king? if they do, will Uriah Flint accept Lady Blackbird as his bride? By the time they get there, will she want him to?
Go. Play. And find out.

Sky pirates? Sounds sweet! I would be up for it.
Would players learn the system and create characters at the start of this session?

The system's very easy to learn and it comes with pregenerated characters, so don't worry about it. It's not built for long-term play, but I like it because I think it'll be a good introduction to this kind of stuff - it's easy to pick up and play, and it synthesizes a lot of the design stuff I'm so excited about in these more story-oriented games.

Yeah, tomorrow at seven - or eight, if that works better for everyone. If anyone can't make it, please let me know - if we have less than a full group, I might prepare something else.

I think I can make this, if there's room in the group. If not, I know I'm kind of late chiming in here, so no worries.

No problem. I think we'll still be fine with three , so if Icnivad is in, we'll play Lady Blackbird. Otherwise, I'll run something else.
