Flight and Flying, Thursday, June 21, 2018

Anakin greeted the flight class wearing a pair of aviator sunglasses and a grin. "I feel the need...the need for speed."

Guess what movie had been on TV last night, kids? That's right.

"Today we'll be flying the slightly dated F-14 Tomcat," Anakin said, pulling a hologram of the plane up for the class to examine. "It was retired back in 2006, but it's still a lot of fun to fly. We'll have a simulation with dogfighting--plane against another plane, no dogs involved--and one where you can buzz the flight tower, which is flying way too close to it, way too fast, without landing." Anakin grinned. "And then we'll play volleyball, which my wife assures me is an extremely important part of the process of becoming a fighter pilot, at least according to the movie we watched."

Sabine was pretty sure she was going to crash this thing, but she was going to do her best not to.

And hey, she didn't! Pleasant surprise!

She made up for it by getting closer to the tower than she intended, and worrying herself more than the tower guy. Hey, she was still learning.

Yeah, Yang was way better at this than dogfighting.

She generally had really good spacial awareness, and now that she was more familiar with the shape and heft of the aircraft after that fight, she wasn't quite buzzing the tower close enough for a flawless shave, but it was pretty dang close.

Sabine looked around, ball in hand. "I don't know what to do with this."
