Kyyrk's vessel slid from the hangar bay, accelerating to build distance between it and the Vanguard. "Providence Vanguard is clear, switching to manual control." The ship had been manually linked in to the computers aboard the Allegiance. This ship, Jhira had been placed in charge of. From his position aboard the Providence, Kyyrk could issue commands to the other vessel, including a kill switch should the situation require. But for now, he hoped he would send little more than scenario updates. Kyyrk glanced down at the control panel as he disengaged the auto-docking procedures, but soon lifted his gaze back to the stars surrounding him. Scarif could be seen a ways off, but it was barely the size of a coin, so great was their distance. Kyyrk drew a deep breath, then sighed. Space. No matter how cold and uninviting it was, he always came back.
"Captain, you may launch when ready. The rules are simple. The ship's computer has been configured to simulate atmospheric flight, and an artificial terrain has been generated approximately four hundred kilometers below us. We'll start by testing your flight capabilities. The Providence's computer is generating a course, and transmitting it to the Allegiance. The first loop is the simplest, being little more than a series of markers. You'll have one mulligan round to learn the course, then your navigational systems will only display what you tell it to. There will be five degrees of difficulty added in sequence, with the hardest including drones that simulate hostile fire. Your goal is not to destroy them, though you are welcome to do so if you chose. Again, your goal is achieving the best possible time. She may be dusty, but her parts are all still in good working order. Don't take it easy cause you're afraid you'll break something. Whenever you're ready."
Kyyrk lifted a mug of caf to his lips as his eyes glanced back towards the distant carrier. Rings slowly began to spring to life around him, as the holo-drones illuminated their projectors to bring life to the course. Though the Allegiance could support a crew of three, he did not expect Jhira to be flying with someone during the raid, so she was in the ship by herself today. It would be interesting to see how well she handled it...
