Flight Club, Monday, 4 pm in the flight shed

Aeryn's been in the flight shed for a while today, and she looks a little more cheerfu when everyone arrives, just for today's material. Well, cheerful for Aeryn. Which means she doesn't look like she's ready to kill you.

"We're going back to something some of us have done before," she tells them. "Today we're working on the Jedi starfighter. Normally built for use with an astromech droid that helps you fly, today the instructor will play that part. They're no longer in use, but as someone who's tried one, that really is unfortunate. I'd like you just to try it out, take it for a run, and those of you who have flown one before, feel free to show the new people how it's done. I'm sure no one will have problems showing off."

With a strange mix of emotions that were better not considered, Peter took the starfighter through the run quickly.

Having finished his own run a bit earlier, Cameron gave Peter a small smile. "It's a bit weird after having been in the real things," he remarked.

Peter nodded. "Feels different, doesn't it? Heavier somehow."

Cameron nodded. "It does even if the sim is pretty realistic. Maybe it's in our head?"

Broots remembered the deal he made with Aeryn. The catch? No computer game he'd played had this kind of a ship in it. Hence the crashing.

Broots grunted. And crashed on trying to get off of the ground again. "What am I doing wrong?"

Naomi had never flown in a star fighter so she waited for someone to show her what to do.

Naomi nodded in response, "yes,"

Billy looked the fighter over, then hopped into the cockpit.

Luke watched everyone run through the simulator before he felt like he was really ready to try it.

He swallowed hard as he strapped himself into the cockpit--he was sure it was only his imagination, but his father seemed very real to him at the moment.

His voice gave him away, cracking a bit as he tried to talk. "Ready," he said, flipping through the ignition sequence.

"Getting there," Luke said, taking a deep breath.

Evie, of course, has no idea what she's doing.

She managed to get the Starfighter started, but then hit one of the wings on the ground as she attempted a take-off. "Oops."

Billy stayed away from the others, while trying to look like he wasn't doing it deliberately.
