Flight- Monday- 3rd period

"Welcome back, guys," Jaina greeted the students when everyone had gotten to the flight shed. "Last week we covered something from my galaxy, now we cover something from this planet. Today we're talking about the F-14 Tomcat, which was first introduced in the Vietnam War and was retired a few years back. Still, that's a good forty years of service in there. They're two-seaters, with wings that swing back and forth automatically in flight, and have an internal cannon along with being capable of carrying a few different kinds of missiles. So they could do some damage.

"Today you're going to fly one of these in a dogfight. Your primary goal is to not get shot down," she went on. "And as an added challenge, I went ahead and did this same simulation earlier. Try and beat my score."

Between powers, video games and the 'Frog, Victor figured he had an advantage. But overconfidence almost got the better of him as he moved too fast at first, almost diving straight into the ground in an evasive maneuver that didn't go as well as he'd hoped, but he drew the nose up at the end before catastrophe struck.

His score wasn't quite as good as Jaina's because of the learning curve, but it was more than respectable for a first dogfight.
