Dux talk to Control, quin and explain our requirement for landing procedures. ``Dux: Control *~*! ``Control: Zaa. ``Dux: Okay, they now understand the problem. If they were not so quick, they would not have come up with their alternative answer, because they think they are right, and we are wrong. ``Jarry: We have permission to land. Seat belt light and cameras are on. We are going too fast. ``Captain: Mach 1, but we must keep some speed on as we drop to quickly. ``Kirin: Captain: Your hands as well on the controls, quin. ``Captain: Zaa. ``Jarry: Outer marker beacon, 100 Km to run. ``Dux: Qaa, that means 80 Km. ``Captain: Mach 0. Forward thrusters on. Down thrusters on. The controls are heavy. ``Kirin: Very heavy. Dux, your support, quin. ``Dux: Certus. ``Jarry: SP3. ``Kirin: She is sinking fast. ``Dux: That windsock is fluctuating. ``Captain: Go for no wind landing. Forward thrusters off. ``Kirin: I need the down camera on, Jarry. ``Jarry: It is not working. Altitude 5 Km. ``Kirin: Go to wide angle. ``Captain: We have to land, as we have passed the inner beacon. ``Dux: Touch to Port. ``Jarry: I Km. --- 500 metres. ``Dux: More to Port, because of drag. ``Captain: Leave thruster on. ``Jarry: 100 metres. ``Kirin: Touching down. [Thud] Down. ``Captain: Normal shut down procedure. ``Kirin: Warming mode. That was a very hairy difficult landing and the worst I have ever had. ``Captain: It is not good having it easy all the time. ``Jarry: I agree it was hairy. ``Captain: let us get some fresh air. ``Jarry: Drawbridge down. {Cepheus Conurbation ~ 5} ``Dux: We have the courtesy Hopper-Bus to take us to the Hotel. ``Auntie: The are all smaller compared to us, and the gravity is a touch lighter than ours. ``Dux: You may sometimes have to duck your heads. ``Vanna: It reminds me of Old England where ceilings were very low, but in contrast their gardens are huge and all their places are detached. ``Dux: The are all independent crowd of Beings, which makes it difficult to help anyone. ``Zola: Also making communication difficult. ``Dux: Zaa, and I think because they talk so fast they just do not bother, as they cannot understand themselves. ``Zola: That does make sense. ``Vanna: Also, why nothing much ever gets done. ``Dux: Cheb has had many problems with the Saucers, and specifications, because of the Cepheusians. ``Tetra: This is amazing to be able to see this different life style form. Neither do they have time to stop and say hallo. ``Zola: Look at them all! They are all in a hurry to go nowhere. ``Vanna: They certainly need some direction to get them out of this rut. ``Dux: The meeting is arranged for tomorrow and you will be escorted. Here we are, and it is all prima class, so all accommodation services and light breakfast is included. Anything else you pay. So I will leave you, and zaffre all. Zimo. {Cepheus Hotel ~ 5} ``Vanna: Folks, we will meet back here in the restaurant at 8th time tomorrow for breakfast. Feel free for the rest of the evening. ``Zola: Blimey this is a high class standard. ``Vanna: Very nice. So shall we get freshened up and go for walk, and see some night life? ``Zola: Certus. This is pure luxury and the smooth bedding is just how you like it, and a queen size bed, so we can have some fun sliding around. ``Vanna: I fancy a Kvass. ``Zola: One each, as we have an important meeting in the morning. ``Vanna: Just a night cap. ``Zola: otherwise you will be having the spare bed. ``Vanna: Cheeky. ``Zola: I get it from you. {Ranger Outpost ~ 2} – [Back in Cassiopeia] ``Sheriff: Report? ``Kern: We managed to catch one of the gang escaping, because the others had already fled. I do not think that he knew we were coming, so it means they have moved hideouts. ``Sheriff: Are you sure? ``Kern: The one we caught was unaware of our presence. ``Sheriff: The place was empty? ``Kern: Zaa, and the evidence was a gangster note book we found in the bin. ``Sheriff: Yerba did warn us, but it was all down to circumstances. ``Kern: One is better than none, so he will not be going anywhere. < Previous Page 546 Vega <13.5.8> Mild [21 = 488 <533> 00 = 110] Next Page 548> |
