Ep.#15 - "that Which Other Men Cannot Do" (The Frontiers Saga)
““Nice-looking ship,” Vladimir said as he came out of the fighter deck control room.
“Yes, it is,” Nathan agreed. “I trained in the original version, you know.”
“How did you like it?” Vladimir asked as he joined his friend at the railing.
“It was an easy ship to fly. Lots of automation, faster than hell to orbit. Maneuverable as well. She could out-turn and out-accelerate a standard Jung fighter. At least that’s what we were told at the time. I’m not sure anyone had actually seen a J...ung fighter in combat back then.”
“Then it was fun to fly?”

Little two-seat aerobatic job. He taught me to fly in it when I was about twelve. Now that was a fun plane to fly. Real stick and rudder stuff.MoreLess
