A cadet training as a pilot began her preflight checks on one of the Challenger’s Valhalla-class runabouts. She had been notified that the XO would potentially be flying the runabout as well, but for now, she was in charge until everyone got there and situated.

Cadet Flysalot

Cadet Douglas walked toward the the runabout. “Cadet Douglas, reporting as ordered. I have an idea to get us through the storm in one piece, maybe not with a bruise or two, but alive.”

One of the engineering crew chief in the shuttle bay wandered around the outside doing checks and coordinating with Flysalot doing the thumbs up and down system checks before making a few notes on a PaDD coordinating with other enlistedmen. “Do ya know what load out yer gonna need?” he asked the cadet pilot.

Douglas trying to intervene. “I have an idea. If we do a manual de-orbit burn with oxidized atmospheric thrusters and shut down and use RCS for the Re-Entry phase, the storm might not destroy us entirely. But I would have to co pilot for course correction calculations on the fall.” Douglas took a breath. “To use that plan we need to use a Fuel, oxidizer mix for the atmospheric thrusters, otherwise impulse would destroy us.

“Maybe you want to pilot?” Flysalot commented with a grin at the cadet. “We’ll get you there, I promise. We just need to wait a few moments for the rest of the team.”

“I can, but I’d still recommend someone, with, higher training to co-pilot.” Douglas waited a moment. “We’ll need to load up secondary fuel tanks with oxidiser and set up in a fashion both can run simultaneously.”

It was his first away mission, and Cadet Rainns was as nervous as he had ever been in his life. He didn’t know what he had volunteered to do but he was going to do whatever he was supposed to the best of his abilities. Arriving at the shuttlebay his eyes scanned the room for a few moment to find the runabout he was to report to. Upon seeing it the somewhat anxious Cadet made his way toward the space craft. He stepped onboard to see two fellow cadets having a conversation about piloting and fuel tanks, neither of which were his specialty.

After finishing, Douglas spoke. “Hey, you’re with us right?” Not giving time for Rainns to answer, “Every experienced more than 6g?” questioning worriedly.

Cadet Rainns nodded in response to the first question, although he immediately realized Douglas had not been looking for a response. “Of course I have,” Rainns verbally responded to Doulgas’ second question, with a hint of annoyance. ‘A know it all’ Rainns thought to himself ‘just what I need’.

Douglas turned to the other cadet. “Have you experienced 6g?”
