Preflight Conversations

Talk to SHOTGLASS

Have a seat, Maverick. This place is getting empty these days.

I hear you've been flying the Raptor. She's a good ship, fast but a bit clumsy.

It's an aggressive ship...if you're an aggressive pilot.

I'd bet you could stand off a Gratha or two with that kind of ship.

Oh well...you've probably got a better feel for the ship than me.

Pay no mind to this ol' has-been.

Talk to ANGEL

Bonsoir, mon ami.

I have heard that the Kilrathi are sending in their best pilots...

It is my goal to encounter with one of their aces and shoot him down.

But, I have not had the chance to engage one yet.

If you are so lucky, you will try to kill him at all costs, non?

That is the best way to ensure our victory.

Talk to SPIRIT

Greetings, Maverick-san.

Have you heard what happened to Lt. Marshall on his last mission?

Jeannette Devereaux

It is remarkable that the brilliant young lieutenant has not yet destroyed the Tiger's Claw!

Mariko Tanaka

He was pursuing a Dralthi as it rushed toward one of our transports.

He locked a heat-seeking missile on its exhaust and launched...

...but at the last minute, the Dralthi looped back towards him.

The missile lost its lock on the enemy,and acquired the transport as its target.

The transport's engines were severely damaged,and the ship was soon destroyed.

It is vital that one consider what is beyond his target before firing...

...as the lieutenant's unfortunate example demonstrates.
