*only skimmed through the other posts, yoinking from Episode Zero* Assuming that everyone was born in AC 180 (I've heard it rumored that Trowa is supposed to be a year older but haven't seen anything official for that ( ... )

*Wufei obviously knew how to pilot a Mobile Suit, because he does so in Episode 0 when Meilan dies; there's about a year between her death and the start of the series so presumably he could've spent the better part of that training with Shenlong and Master O specifically (once it was completed).

i'm assuming Trowa's training specifically with Heavyarms is about 2 or 3 years before canon. there was a scene in EW i think, that showed when Trowa was replaced by No-Name and he doesn't look much younger than canon.

so if Wufei was in the boarding school til he was 14 and Shenlong wasn't finished, his training with Shenlong could have been the shortest...

thanks! ^^

Our Trowa (No-Name) took over piloting Heavyarms at the very last second, iirc. *checks Ep 0* yeah, on page 219, we have Doktor S's dialogue from EW ("Very well. As of now, you're Trowa Barton") leading directly into Trowa participating in the altered Operation Meteor. How long Trowa worked on Heavyarms as a mechanic is unknown, though. ^.^

Yeah, Wufei didn't spend very long with Shenlong at all ^o^

considering everyone else is saying/guessing Trowa'd been trained to use MS while in the mercenary group(though i don't see how a 4 year old could pilot) he'd have some knowledge of how... coulda been the test pilot too, one of the reasons S choose him.

Quite possible :3 Yeah, I have to wonder about Trowa's lifepath here XD Because he loses his family as a one-year-old but doesn't get picked up by the mercenaries until he's clearly an older toddler...if he could survive three years of infancy/toddlerhood on his own, maybe they did start him in on MS training as a 4-year-old! XD

hey it's better than what some are saying about Duo, that Solo raised him from infancy. all i can say is WTF!?!
