Beginner Trade Routes?

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Beginner Trade Routes?

Anyone have any good beginner trade routes to make money so I can buy a Rhino and equip it enough so it can withstand the assualts you usually face coming in and out of some jump gates (just local area jump gates so I can run intersystem trades to get more than 15 dollars profit per unit)? Or should I stick with combat until I get enough money and rank to buy a higher grade transport than the Rhino?

I didn't find cargo runs at the beginning to be of much profit, probably because of the distances i needed to travel and the little information i knew about other prices on other systems.

Take on short missions where they say "we have already dispatched some of our units there already". Don't take on the base ones ... take too long. Other than that, at the beginning of the game it's an easy 3-5k per mission and each only takes like 5 minutes.
