Flight and flying- Tuesday

The last class was being held back in the flight shed, where Jaina had two little boys playing quietly with some holographic toys in the corner. Had she promised them that they could maybe see a simulator after class? Possible.

"For the last class, we're trying starfighters again, and you'll be able to choose what kind," Jaina told them. "Whatever you feel more comfortable with. One of the best things you can learn is how to manage a crash landing. In the middle of a normal space flight, you'll start having engine troubles and need to land on this jungle planet, but your landing gear is also going to go out. You'll have to work through and figure out what best to do, and I've even got a little demo for you on what to account for. If you have a good reason to not try this one, talk to me and we'll work it out." Never forget the time she got detention for not crashing in a flight class right after she recovered from being blinded in a ship explosion. Never forget. "Good luck."

Right. This was one of the main reasons Lana was taking this class in the first time. She was choosing a standard shuttle, since that was what most often got wrecked, in her experience.

Goose should not be this gleeful about getting to deliberately crash land a ship but he was curious to see what damage he could cause what would happen.

He also didn’t factor in anything about making a safe landing, he just basically landed in the first spot that he came across and skidded the ship along til it stopped.

Stark did not enjoy crashing and generally speaking tried to avoid it. He was not always successful because that was just how his life went.

He had chosen the clawcraft from an earlier class because they look cool.

Turns out smashing those into the jungle wasn't super fun. Who knew?

Lana managed to get it down with minor damage. It would still need repairs, but at least it was salvageable!
