((Type-17 Argo Transport “Atlas”, Designated Flight Training Ground, Space around Risa ))
In the small amount of downtime, Alyndra had silently assessed Bergmen's aptitude for piloting. Making notes of any minor mistakes, major blunders or things he did well. Approaching the start coordinates, Alyndra began his formal medical flight evaluation.
Syrex: Alright Lieutenant, please hold here whilst I explain the test to you.
Bergmen: Ready, Doctor. ::smiles::
Syrex: So, this’ll be a forty-minute test, starting here with a few manoeuvres before we have a few simulations of various encounters you may one day face, before we slowly make our way back to the Artemis. All right?
Bergmen: Alright, alright, understood, Doctor.
Syrex: Then let’s proceed, do a barrel
roll at one-quarter impulse. No internal dampeners. Oh, and try not to make me
throw up.
Bergmen: Aye, ma’am. Barrel roll, zero point two five impulse.
Alyndra
gazed over her PADD as she rested her crossed arms on her legs. Bergmen manipulated
the vehicle with apparent ease. Alyndra felt as her body leaned into the side
of her seat, as the shuttle corkscrewed through space.
Bergmen: Feel good, Doctor?
Syrex: Perfectly fine thank you ensign…-I’m sorry, Lieutenant. Please
continue.
oO Focus on the flying. I’ve been through much rougher times these past few months than your exam Oo
The
pressure from Alyndra's side rolled onto her shoulders as the pair of officers
inside the shuttle began to hang from the ceiling, only held in place with
their chair restraints. Usually she wasn’t a physicist, but she couldn’t help
but be amazed by the power of sheer inertia. Early space stations revolutionised
this technology for artificial gravity onboard. After feeling it yet again
firsthand, she was glad for gravity plating.
Her body began to settle as the shuttle finished its manoeuvre. Her body
shifted forward, pivoting from her neck as the transport slowed to a halt.
Bergmen: Speed zero
point two five, check, flight level, flight level is nominal. What’s next?
::smiles::
Alyndra
smiled back at the operations officer.
Syrex: Firstly, well executed. ::looks at her PADD:: Secondly, I’d like you
to perform a Kolvoord Starburst manoeuvre, when you’re ready.
Bergmen: Response
Alyndra nodded at him, grinning.
Syrex: Quite right, that was your second test. You would need several crafts for that, so there’s one, but it’s also illegal.
Bergmen: Response
Syrex: Your third test is to perform a Picard manoeuvre. Please continue when you’re ready.
Alyndra gestured to the control panel in front of Ollie.
Bergmen: Response
