KAPPA SQUADRON WEEKLY REPORT - 02/22/2015

TO: COM/HA Frodo March
FROM: CMDR/CPT Repulsor
DATE SUBMITTED: 22 Feb 2015

PROLOGUE
Kappa Squadron Commander Captain Repulsor sat seemingly annoyed in his chair, leaning forward, holding a cabled phone at his left ear, listening to some verbose explanation.

„What do you mean, hydraulic failure?”
„Hangar doors stuck, Sir!”, the technician’s voice replied.
„As far as I know these systems are doubled and should operate 24/7! We are sitting here like ducks and you come up with pressure levels and working hours in my ears!”
„I am sorry, Sir, we are doubling our efforts. I expect the hangar be operational in hours.”
„Good. Inform me immediately on changes.”

The Captain certainly didn’t like the development of events. His Kappa Squadron was one of Imperial Star Destroyer Warrior’s most versatile starfighter squadrons, built on training, continuous practice and distinguished teamwork. And now, that the Fleet-wide TIE Corps on Patrol operation was calling each squadron to compete against each other periodically in organized circumstances, they became victims of one tiny component of the mighty Star Destroyer. Kappa Squadron would miss the actual round.

Grunting, he slowly walked to the window facing Hangar Bay 1, where technicians ran back and forth, and the starfighters bearing Kappa insignia were sitting quietly, with cables and diagnostic displays connected to them. As he set his eye on his personal Missile Boat, the Black Panther, the starfighter’s pneumatic equalizer released some air, as if the craft shared her pilot’s embarrassment…

„Kappa Squadron, this is your Commander. Flight operations in the next round of TIE Corps on Patrol are cancelled due to hangar bay failure. Briefing in 2 minutes.”

SQUADRON NEWS

Welcome to this week’s Squadron Report! Kappa Squadron had a quiet week, no flying activity was reported. Non-flying-wise, Kappa showed great presence in the Warrior Trivia (4 submissions), with LT Sparky taking the fastest perfect submission home this week! Congrats! However, there is room and opportunity to finish the month of February strong!

The TIE Corps on Patrol comp continues, the third week’s missions have been announced. Don’t forget that the GoG TIE Fighter (Battle 2: The Sepan Civil War) and X-Wing (TOD 1: A New Ally) competitions are on. The Tactical Office awaits your scores in these until the end of the month!

The Kappa Race to 40 competition is running, too! Your flying activity will be rewarded not only by FCHG earnings, but reach 16 points for an IS-BW, and be the first to reach 40 points to win the competition and earn an IS-SW!
