Flight and Flying [Thursday, August 23, 3rd period]

[sith_happened]

Anakin was waiting for the students on the top of the apartment building in town, leaning up against a Lambda-class Imperial shuttle.

"Welcome to the Virgo," he said with a small smile before giving them a quick rundown of the general specifications of the ship. "It's twenty meters long and is generally used to ferry soldiers or cargo back home," he said. "It's also equipped with a hyperdrive--which we will not be using--as well as two forward-facing double laser cannons, two wing-mounted double cannons, and a rear-facing double laser cannon." He met each student's eyes. "Which we will definitely not be using. We're going to do a quick swing around the system here--we won't go out as far as Pluto, but since it's not a planet any longer, I doubt it will be that offended."

He waved a hand towards the ramp. "Come aboard."

It wasn't technically Adam's first time in space, but it was for flying something in space.

He figured for the first time doing this, the safe way was the best way. After all the Flying classes, Adam knew he could do this.

Anakin smiled and gave him the breakdown of the equipment, then moved his hands away from his steering column. "She's all yours."
