Honestly? It’s really just an issue of taking a test for certification. I’ve been flying ships for a while now, and by far the Lucky Strike is the biggest one yet.

Here is a super-secret fact though: these things basically fly themselves. Honestly, most of my job is kind of sitting in this chair as we trace basic routes. I occasionally need to correct, but with the routes of the inner system and the jumpgate queues there isn’t a whole lot for me to do off-the-rails, as it were.

Although, really, gravity does most of the work. The ship is constantly falling toward something. That sort of thing is always something to remember when you’re out there. One way or another you’re being pulled to something big.

I am sort of anxious to be pushing into the frontier, because it’s a little less… I dunno… robotic, I guess? I bet I’ll actually get to do a lot more as we push out.

Anyway, ask me anything. Still in the queue.
