Mydalia peeks into the half-repaired craft. Interesting. She climbs into the cockpit, thinking to try it out - thinking, something servo-drones aren't supposed to do. Flipping a few switches, she activates its engines...

[Pestilence] I thought you did the navigating... Ah hell. Heads or Tails? I win, we go North, you win, we go South.

*flips coin*
heads
*it comes down on tails*
We go north
*spins the skimmer and pulls back the throtle*
If we keep low, like below 20ft and keep it at about 83% of full speed i can get it nearly 100 miles and back again without having to worry about it crashing on me.... good eh?
*switches on a few radar screens*
would you mind watching them? im going to have to watch for anything sticking up

Wargamer (The Wanderer) Posted Dec 13, 2002
[Pestilence] Sure. Nothing... Nothing... Blip! Three! Five! Damn!
*looks out the window at a flock of vultures.*
[Pestilence] I think the radar needs tunin' Kranny. Hold on...
*Crawls under the control console, pulls out a tool kit, and begins some in-flight repairs...*
