Flight- Monday- 3rd period

The class was meeting in the flight shed today, where Jaina was standing in front of the class, only speaking when she was sure everyone had arrived.

"Welcome to Flight class. My name's Jaina Solo, and while some of you know me by now, let's do the usual first day spiel for the ones who don't. I'm a Jedi, ex-military-" And that still stung to say, yes. "-and made it into my first squadron when I was sixteen. I'm mostly used to flying starfighters, in space rather than in atmosphere, but overall, if it can fly, I can fly it. So this class is going to be dealing with flying those kinds of ships, along with Earth-based craft, either in the Danger Shop or in here in the simulator. Which, by the way, you're only to treat nicely. If anything breaks, you not only have to deal with me, but with Professor Skywalker, and trust me, you don't want that." She could say that after years of getting yelled at.

"We're going to be cliche and do introductions today, and you'll get in the sim next week. Today I want to know what I'm dealing with, so you're going to go around and say your name, where you're from, and what kind of experience you've got. Let's start with you."

"My name is Ulrik, I'm from Denmark, where it is 1637 now, and I've... been a passenger in a plane a handful of times, back home."

Yes, in the 17th century.

No, planes weren't supposed to have existed then.

"I'm Atton Rand, I'm from Telos, and I've flown just a couple of times," Atton said.

Impressively, none of that was true.

"I'm Cade, from Coruscant, and I've flown a few times."

Compared to Atton, Cade was being positively honest!

"Korra, from the Southern Water Tribe, I've been on a flying bison a bunch of times and an airship occasionally."

Korra was actually telling the truth.

"I'm Evan Sabahnur, from Kansas! I've got my own personal jetpack and rocket boots, and I've been using them since I was about eleven... But I still need a lot of work with them. I asked a friend back home who has wings if maybe he'd teach me how to fly better, but then I ended up here pretty shortly after, so he never had the chance."

Evan was being both open-faced and honest, and maybe a little rambly!

"I'm Karina Lyle, from Sternbild City, in NC 1977." Which was really, really not the same as 1977 in this world's timeline. "I've been a passenger a few times on aircraft?"

Karolina gave a little wave. "I'm Karolina Dean, and I'm from Los Angeles, and, um, I've never flown any kind of aircraft or anything before. But, I can fly on my own?"

Whoo superpowers.

"Hi, I'm Victor Mancha, I'm also from modern L.A., and I've piloted this ... specialized craft a couple times. It gets good altitude, but it kind of takes off by hopping."

This was possibly not the clearest explanation of Leapfrog ever, but the 'Frog was hard to sum up.

"I'm Emily Thorne, from the United States. Like, the same as these, but without Fandom Island I suppose. I haven't really so much driven a car in my life?" Not legally, mind you.

She had had some small experience with driving, but Takeda had been mostly focusing on preparing her mind rather than her body, as creepy as that sounded.

Emily listened alright, but even when she had already seen things and heard things, it was hard to stop considering it all Crazy Talk.

But apparently they were going to actually fly things (on a simulator but whatever) so she was okay with it.
