Flight and Flying [Friday morning]

[emo-padawan.livejournal.com]

When the flight workshop arrived at the shed, they found it locked up tight and Anakin leaning up against it.

Wearing a beanie.

And a sullen expression, but that was kind of a given.

"For our last class," he said, "we're going to fly helicopters. The pilot's waiting for us over at Selkie Cove. Come grab a hat--and no, they're not optional--and then we'll head over together."

He even had one Faithful-sized. Anakin was thorough.

Alec was not letting a night's stay in the clinic stop him from flying a heplicopter. So it was probably just as well it was just him and the pilot alongside.

Maybe he was taking advantage of this chance, and it being the last class, but there were some really sweet moves (http://www.bestofgooglevideo.com/video.php?video=443) you could pull in a helicopter. Loops, barrel rolls and a nice little maneuver that involved spinning at high speed with the nose on a nearly fixed point.

So the pilot probably hated him, but by the time Alec landed he felt much better than he had last night.

Dean stared, glad he'd already taken his turn because that's the kind of thing that would turn him off flying in a big way. "Dude," he greeted Alec when he exited the helicopter and rejoined the group, "remind me never to get in a copter with you. That was just..."

Alec grinned, practically beaming. "Awesome?"

"Insane's more like it," Dean said, but Alec's grin was infectious and he found himself smiling back. "I take it you're feeling better."

"Lots," he confirmed, still a little giddy. "Flying's just what I needed."

"I'll remember that. If there's a next time, I'll just take you to an airport instead of the clinic," Dean teased.

Alanna glared when Alec came out of the helicopter.

Alec grinned at her. "Hey, what's that look for?"

"You just got out of the clinic."

"I'm not passing out or vomiting, am I?" The grin didn't waver.

"I didn't throw up on anyone!" Alanna glared back. "And that was a stupid unneccesarry risk."
