Re: Destination: Foreven
With the ship getting ready to depart, Forge headed to the turret control and pulled up the training manual on the thing to read up on it in case heavier firepower was needed. At least it will give him something to do while in jump.

Re: Destination: Foreven
Gahler strapped himself into a flight station and prepared to get his piloting skill on.  He started to sing an old Terran song as he did the pre-flight...

"Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away

Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru
In llama-land there's a one-man band
And he'll toot his flute for you
Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue"

"That's good Gahler! Glad you can carry a tune. I only sing in the shower and it hurts my ears there too!" he says with a grin.

Hearing the song echoing through the craft, Forge hollered back. "He sang better than me, I sing to the key of "OFF!", but I sound better with more booze in my system." he quipped back.

"I always sing after a whiskey," Gahler said...

And with that, he started to pilot the spacecraft.

"Only to yourself Forge, only to yourself." He digs out his ears trying to get the noise out of them.

How often do you lot allow Grohlson access to Whisky... That was like listening to the sound of a pack of raging Duringes.

Re: Destination: Foreven
With no further business on the ground and no dissension, Luise gave the 'Go' sign to ASTC and is approved with no immediate air traffic in the vicinity.

"Go ahead and take her up, Gahler," Luise tells him. "You've got the vector on your helm--straight to the jump point."

"Nothing in the system that can reach us to challenge us, but keep a close eye on the sensors. I don't want any more surprises for awhile."

"Roger that," Gahler said as he pushed the throttles forward and tracked the target waypoint in his HUD.  Once clear of any possible traffic, he checked the sensors and double checked the transponder to make sure everything was in order.

Re: Destination: Foreven
"We're heading for Edinina," Luise answers. "It's an Amber Zone, but we're just going to refuel at the gas giant. So you'll need to adjust the destination coordinates, Adriannah. Also, since we aren't stopping for any appreciable amount of time, you might as well do the calcs for the next destination after that--Quare. No rush, and you'll probably have to tweak it a bit once we reach Edinina to take into account any spacial variations."

"Doubt if we'll get any automated updates from Edinina. I couldn't even find out any data on why there's even a population there. I'm guessing it's mining."

"Also, stay alert for Arden ships. Can't imagine why they'd target Edinina at this point, but, remember... NO SURPRISES!"

Adriannah acknowledged Luise's plan then started the online process, which was facilitaded by the Astrogation app on the ships internal mainframe.

STEP 2: Grant to 871-438 Jump-3; gas giant refuel
STEP 3: 871-438 to Tremous Dex Jump-2; should be safe

STEP 5: Edinina to Quare Jump-3; should be safe
STEP 6: Quare to Thanbar Jump-3; should be safe
STEP 7: Thanbar to Faisal Jump-2; might be a problem; no gas giant
STEP 8: Faisal to Bael         Jump-3; gas giant refuel
STEP 9: Bael to… 3217 or 3119 Jump-2 or 3 depending on intel we pick up

"We sell our current cargo on Quare. If we find a good shipyard Luise, can we pick up a particle accelerator barbette? I vote Werten for our first destination in Foreven."

Roland keeps the engines running smoothly. Checking the computer for fuel mix, polishing the chrome which was in abundance. It was clear she was a custom job in his eyes.

OOC - Rob, is the ship in the 'Game map' thread the Frumious Bandersnatch?

"Werten? Are you naming planets already?" Arc asks Harry. "What if we get there and its already inhabited and the people call it Skronk?"

"We probably should do some cross-training, unless we hire more crew. I suggest everyone have at least two areas that they are qualified for. Of course, that means we need to make a list of what areas we're talking about."

"What, you don't like that they call their planet Werten? I got a library update for a few sub-sectors from a scout I know. Cross training is a good idea Arc, a very good idea." He smiles at Arc as he says this.
