Flight & Flying [Friday, June 22, 2nd period]
Anakin was waiting for the students on the top of the apartment building in town, leaning up against a Lambda-class Imperial shuttle.
"Welcome to the Virgo," he said with a small smile before giving them a quick rundown of the general specifications of the ship. "It's twenty meters long and is generally used to ferry soldiers or cargo back home," he said. "It's also equipped with a hyperdrive--which we will not be using--as well as two forward-facing double laser cannons, two wing-mounted double cannons, and a rear-facing double laser cannon." He met each student's eyes. "Which we will definitely not be using. We're going to do a quick swing around the system here--we won't go out as far as Pluto, but since it's not a planet any longer, I doubt it will be that offended."
He waved a hand towards the ramp. "Come aboard."
