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."

Re: Dogfight!
