Flight Club, Monday, 4 pm in the flight shed

[can_be_more]

Aeryn gets to the flight shed early, watching everyone arrive. When it looks like everyone's there, she goes straight into her talk. Someone might someday teach her the value of 'hello.'

"Today we're going to work on something from Earth," she says. "It's called a F/A-18E Super Hornet, and while it doesn't go into space, it is actually in use today. Personally I like space flying better, but this isn't bad. The controls are a little different than last week, but I'll be there to help if you need it." She's very good at not facepalming at those who probably will.

[With OCD in one second... yay!]

Get in the simulator

[can_be_more]

It goes zooooooom.

Billy had at least seen the interior of one of these things. But he'd never actually flown one. He studied the gauges, switches and such figuring out some of what they did. Enough that he wouldn't accidentily eject anyway.

"Think you've got it?" Aeryn asks.

Luke hopped into the simulator and gave the switches and appraising look. "No gravity adjustments to make," he said under his breath. "It'll be like Beggar's Canyon."

He grinned over at Aeryn. "I can make it go, right?"

"If you feel ready for it," Aeryn says mock-seriously.

The only time Naomi had actually seen one of them was in a museum as they were no longer in use during her time, she got into a simulator and examined the controls but once again nothing was actually familiar to her.

Re: Get in the simulator

"How are you doing?" Aeryn asks her.

Re: Get in the simulator

Evie gets in and looks around avidly, eyes wide. "So, I flip these switches, and, um, push the pedals, and steer like last time, right?"

So far, she hasn't hurt herself. Yet.

Re: Get in the simulator

"A bit different," Aeryn says, and tells her what the controls are on the plane as opposed to the Prowler.

Cameron happily bounced over to the simulator. Wieeeee!

Re: Get in the simulator

[can_be_more]

"Think you can handle this?" Aeryn asks him.

Re: Get in the simulator

[dorky-broots.livejournal.com]

Broots didn't bounce, really. He did manage to get into the air. He just forgot that computers don't care with how much strength you punch the bottom. Which is why his turn was almost at 90 degrees.

Re: Get in the simulator

Aeryn facepalms. "Well, you have no problems with maneuverability," she says.

Alec was in the sim and setting the controls and dials within moments of it being his turn.

Re: Get in the simulator

"More like what you're used to dealing with?" Aeryn asks. Seriously, she loves when people can just get it from the start.

General mingling

[can_be_more]

Talk to each other. You're in the same club, you might as well.

Re: General mingling

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

Billy had Highway to the Danger Zone stuck in his head. Please help.

Talk to Aeryn

[can_be_more]

Should you need her.

Re: Talk to Aeryn

[l1ttle-billy.livejournal.com]

"What'd I miss last week?"

OOC

[can_be_more]

So apparently there really is a simulation of this out there. And now I want it.

Re: OOC

*facepalms* And next week, I'll actually notice the post is up more than ten minutes before I go to bed.
