Quotes:10 9

"Pilots call me 'Starbuck', you may refer to me as 'God'. You have all flown before but you're about to enter a whole new world, so pay attention. We don't have any flight simulators o­nboard so we're putting you in the cockpit... today. This is a Viper Mark II. It's as maneuverable as a jackrabbit and can flip end for end in point-three-five seconds. You have never flown anything remotely like it so don't think that you have. Today we will be doing basic launch, approach and landing maneuvers. Anyone not paying attention is liable to end up as a puddle of something to be hosed out of the cockpit by the chief of the deck."
--Lt. Kara Thrace (Act of Contrition)
