Major Sarlee Rathji was a veteran of the McAuliffe Ambush and in 2654 taught a class of instrumentation at the Academy. She told the 201st Plebe Class in 2654 that "awareness in the cockpit is the key to a successful mission. You'll never become proficient from books, lectures or holo-vids, " she said; "only practice in the simulator and real space can do that. But take these lessons seriously now and they'll turn that vital visual sweep of the cockpit into an unconscious skill. You must be able to determine your ship's and weapon's status, the enemy ship's condition, and the location of friendly and enemy ships in your area. And it must become second nature."
