Eli's managed to confirm intel provided by Bishop, so we're reasonably confident there are nine planes we can salvage from abandoned bases that are all within reasonable distances.

Fresh birds for the flock? I hear you ask. Yes! Except we're not entirely sure how fresh, which means I'm going to need pilots and engineers to fly out to assess and, with any luck, bring them back home. Additionally, I will need to borrow some of you lovely Espio or Ground Force types to take us out in those dreamy Blackbirds and to remain on standby as we scope out the jets.

Mission specs:

MONDAY, 07:00. de Vries + Olshanskaya + 1 pilot + Wijk + Dawson (pending confirmation). Destination: Naha airbase. Target: 3 x F-15s.

TUESDAY, 07:00. Sinclair + Hyun + 1 pilot + Jacobs + Aldana Gutiérrez. Destination: Misawa airbase. Target: 1 x F-15, 2 x F-2s.

WEDNESDAY, 07:00. Thomas + 2 pilots + Koskinen + Quinn. Destination: Guam airbase. Target: 3 x Gripens.

Factsheets on plane specs will be distributed later today. Read them, learn them, memorise them.

Appreciate it's a tight schedule, but those aliens aren't waiting for it to be convenient for us. Don't all volunteer at once.

Why, will it make you fly straighter?

[witlessbay]

[jaxsons]

Alright, your majesty.

[philiip]

Please, with such young hot-bloods flying around, I haven't held that title in years.

[jaxsons]

They're good pilots, but they're not you.

[witlessbay]

[jaxsons]

He likes to be pampered like the royalty he thinks he is.

[witlessbay]

typical pilot really

[jaxsons]

It is a key pilot trait. Pretty sure they don't let you fly without it.

[witlessbay]

thats why im on the ground. so humble.

[jaxsons]

The humblest person I know, honestly.

[philiip]

But the very humblest?

[jaxsons]

I'm not talking to you, princess.

[philiip]

I was referring to him!

[jaxsons]

He's more humble than you are.

[witlessbay]

[jaxsons]

I just assume an Eva gift.

[witlessbay]

[jaxsons]

It felt right.

You have to give him something to keep him in line.
