The crew met her early in the morning, just before she began her pre-flight checks in the hangar.
Mia was already in her flight suit, going through her rigorous routine with precision. “Pre-flight checks are crucial,” she explained. “They ensure everything is in perfect working order before we head out.”
The crew followed her as she meticulously inspected her fighter, checking systems and running diagnostics. “This is my baby,” she said with a smile, patting the sleek hull of her fighter. “I trust it with my life.”
Once satisfied with the checks, Mia headed to the mess hall for breakfast. She greeted fellow pilots and crew members with a friendly wave. “The camaraderie here is incredible,” she noted. “We’re like a big family.”
After breakfast, Mia led the crew to the simulation room. “Training never stops,” she said, as she prepared for a simulated dogfight. The crew watched as she deftly maneuvered her virtual fighter, displaying impressive skill and reflexes.
During a break, Mia shared her thoughts on being part of the Mandoleer’s Folly. “Working under Captain Spacedawg is an honor,” she said. “He’s an excellent leader and really cares about his crew.”
Reflecting on her experiences, Mia recounted a memorable battle. “There was this intense skirmish where we were outnumbered. But thanks to our teamwork and training, we came out on top. Moments like that make it all worth it.”
As her shift ended, Mia joined her fellow pilots in the lounge for some relaxation. “After a long day, it’s nice to unwind and catch up with friends,” she said.
