Holodeck<br> | |||
Lt. Jerran and the four cadets filed in, as Counselor Krazny had | |||
specified, at precisely 0830 hours. He stood before them. | |||
"These are twin-seat F-19A Ghostrider fighter aircraft, colloquially known | |||
as Frisbees. Our three craft... I will be flying with Lt. Jerran and you | |||
cadets will also be paired off... will be part of an eighteen aircraft | |||
squadron which will be engaged in Operation Dreamland. Our three craft are | |||
to destroy two IL-76 Mainstay radar aircraft and a highway bridge twenty | |||
kilometers beyond the Elbe River, which is the border with enemy | |||
territory." | |||
"We will keep a low profile, flying virtually at treetop level, to avoid | |||
rader detection. These fighters are specially built to avoid radar | |||
reflections as well. I will warn you, they don't handle as well as most of | |||
the craft you're used to. Go to your planes." | |||
Lt. Jerran and Ens. Krazny climbed into the nearest craft, with cadets in | |||
the next two. Krazny keyed up the radio. "My craft is Phantom One, the | |||
craft behind me is Phantom Two, and the other is Phantom Three." | |||
"Phantom Two here, sir." one anxious cadet reported. Then the cool tones | |||
of a female cadet came through. "Phantom Three here, sir." | |||
Phantom One began to roll down the runway. | |||
NRPG: Take it. They're those Stealth fighters. The sequence (for Andy's | |||
benefit) is out of Chap 15 of Red Storm. | |||
