Test Flight
Tim stood by the SHIELD jet waiting for Brad to arrive. They were scheduled to test fly a new experimental plane, but first they had to get to the test sight. Tim leaned against the plane and checked his email. Despite being out of the lab for only five minutes, he was still working.

	Brad was super excited about the test flight and might have been making all of the other Shield pilots as jealous as he could. Brad came walking over to the plane dressed to fly and finishing up a donut for breakfast. "Hey Tim," He says waving his free hand, "Ready to get going?" (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"You bet," Tim said. "I've been looking forward to this for a few weeks now. It'll be nice to be out of the lab for awhile." Not just to get fresh air. Some time away will help him on a personal level. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Cool," Brad says grinning, "I've been looking forward to this a lot as well." He really did like flying in just about anything. Brad opened the door to the plane. "Come on in and well get going. Just need to talk to mission control to let them knew we are ready for take off when they are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Just no barrel rolls or anything." Tim wasn't a fan of flying stunts to start with. Not to mention he just ate because he knew they would be up in the air for some time. Tim climbed into the second seat and strapped himself in. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well you're no fun," Brad says. He loved doing some stunts even if this plane wasn't exactly good for that type of thing. Brad buckled himself into his seat and got them set off for take off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I just ate. Unless you want some projective vomit all over the place." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah this isn't one of those kinds of flights," Brad says as the plane's engine starts up, "And I don't have to clean up after a vomit comet. Just laugh about it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-01-04 07:22 pm UTC (link)
	"I don't think I need to ask what a vomit comet is," Tim said. "I also don't want to know. I just know that I had a few burritos before this, so my stomach is a little delicate right now." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Fine I'll be gentle for now," Brad says. At least he would get to have a little fun when he stress tested the new plane. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Good," Tim said and settled in. "So how long do you think it'll take us to get there?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_flyboy_ 2013-01-04 10:32 pm UTC (link)
	"Thirty minutes most likely. Depends on weather," Brad says getting ready to take off. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-01-04 10:33 pm UTC (link)
	"Time enough for a nap," he said and put his head back. His eyes closed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_flyboy_ 2013-01-04 10:50 pm UTC (link)
	"OK," Brad says, "I'll wake you up if anything happens." Brad starts the take off as soon as he's given the go ahead. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-01-04 11:05 pm UTC (link)
	"So how did you get into flying?" Tim asked after takeoff. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_flyboy_ 2013-01-04 11:14 pm UTC (link)
	"Wanted to get into fly all my life," Brad says, "So when I was old enough mom pulled a few strings to get me flight lessons and I turned out to be really good at it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-01-05 08:01 pm UTC (link)
	"Good for you," he said. "Did your mother try to get you to do something else?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_flyboy_ 2013-01-06 02:43 am UTC (link)
	"Maybe though I doubt I really paid it any attention," Brad says shrugging, "Though it did give her some good ways to blackmail me unfortunately." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-01-06 02:45 am UTC (link)
	"Oh?" Tim asked. That just sounded like a story waiting to be told. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_flyboy_ 2013-01-06 03:18 am UTC (link)
	"Mom could basically use it to get me to do just about anything so long as she let me fly every once and a while. Fury said she did some good work with it. Heck she got me to paint the house over and over again till she got the color she wanted and not to fight with my brother." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah that's some good leverage she had on you," Tim said. "My mom used not being able to play with electronics as leverage." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_flyboy_ 2013-01-06 02:30 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah nothing I really could do to fight her on it," Brad says, "But I'm kind of curious what kind of things you built as a kid." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_legacy 2013-01-06 03:53 pm UTC (link)
	"I didn't really build anything until I got older, but I just loved to play with electronics. The stuff that got me in trouble were the chemistry experiments. Parents aren't so understanding after the first explosion." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_flyboy_ 2013-01-06 04:02 pm UTC (link)
	Brad laughed. "No I don't think most parents would be understanding after the first explosion," Brad says, "Still sounds like a lot of fun though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I had a good childhood. Even if my three sisters did torment me quite a bit along with Sammy and Alice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_flyboy_ 2013-01-06 04:11 pm UTC (link)
	"Sibling torment is pretty normal." Lord knows how bad he and his brother had been to each other. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
