Pre-Flight Alignment
Internal telemetry confirms clear conditions. A cautious adjustment of my rudder produced an immediate, fluid response. Feeling the smooth laminate beneath my landing gear, I eased forward two millimeters. My nose gear met the edge of the white shelf with a precise, subdued tap. Ahead lies a dark cardboard runway strip running the length of the organizer, flanked by a stationary plush figure and a small green transport bus. Air currents across the room are negligible. Heading verified, altitude steady, and systems holding in operational standby.
