Would like Adventure Suggestions

Hi all...I have hit a small snag with my campaign and I would really appreciate any help. The problem is this. I'm new to traveller and I have a player who is not...meaning he has all the original literature and has read it all (he says its been a very long time since he's read it, but his memory is pretty good)
I need to come up with an adventure that will challenge him, but I also would like to use an already existing adventure, as this is my first time being referee.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Or, get one of the Avenger CT adventures...

BITS has some interesting adventures. They're for T4, but not too much of a problem to use with CT.

And, there are a buttload of adventures in the old magazines like JTAS. DGP's The Travellers' Digest had at least one full-sized adventure each issue.

I've seen several on the net, too. There's a thread in this very forum (look back some pages for a thread I started) where I listed a link to some online CT adventures. One of them was called Argonaut, I remember. It was a pretty little complete adventure in LBB format.

Suggestion 1: Take one of the Classic adventures. Look at the setup. Now imagine a totally different problem/bad guy/underlying reason that could be responsible for the same setup.

Suggestion 2: Get a subscription to JTAS Online ( http://jtas.sjgames.com/ ) and check the archives. There are currently 65 campaign settings, 50 short adventures, and 106 amber zone (adventure seeds) in there, and the subscription is only $20.

What sort of campaign are you running? Where in the TU is it set and what sort of adventures are your players interested in?

Thank you all for your suggestions. I will look for those online adventures.
Unfortunetly, my player does have and has read all the JTAS adventures, so if I did use one of those, I would have to reconfigure it so it seems new. Which isn't a bad thing, but I would rather hold that option in reserve for a more in-depth campaign when we all are comfortable with each other's style of playing.

I am running a more intrigue-based campaign with the occasional option for my players to (and I quote my players) "make something go boom"
We are starting the spinward marshes in the regina subsector.
My players at the moment are flexible about what they expect from the game, I suspect that will change as everyone gets more comfortable with their characters, this game's rules and with me as referee.

I second this.

The Bowman Arm region has plenty of room for things to go Boom. That particular cluster book is packed with adventure ideas.
