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 GutiΓ©rrez. 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.

I think he's just taking personal responsibility because it was his mission. Maybe a little mother hen-ing. Ridiculous, either way.

on a scale of 1 to 10 from 'needs rest' to 'could take someone in a fight still,' where would you put yourself?

I could fight Mr. Novak at a 2 and Hache at a 4 so definitely them.
I might have to get creative against Apollo. But I could manage.
