Episode 0840 - The manoeuvring: Captain, Malcolm, Master, Pilot, Radio, Tetra, Vanna, ~ 07 ``Vanna: Zibo Captain. ``Captain: Zibo Vanna. ``Vanna: I mentioned earlier to you about a problem we are going to have, lifting Cosmo out! ``Captain: I have not had time to think about it. ``Vanna: May I make a proposal? ``Captain: Certus. ``Vanna: Master is on his way over, and Tetra is on standby. We all agree, including Pilot that you take us to Space Cavern in the S182 and drop us off. You lift out S172, so we can power up and lift off in Cosmo. Then you can put her back down, which will give them room to manoeuvre things around, as they are all squashed in. Even Tetra had to land on top of S172, and Bugby is still on top of Cosmo. ``Captain: I can see the funny side of it. ``Vanna: It would be nice to see you laugh! ``Captain: Okay you win. We meet here after lunch. ``Vanna: We have one problem, where are you going to land? ``Captain: The only possible solution is for us all to be airborne at the same time. Bugby lifts off and lands on top of us, being the S182. You transfer to Bugby, and he drops you back down on Cosmo. We will then pick up the S172 so you can lift off in Cosmo. ``Vanna: brilliant. Can I use your terminal and I will instruct pilot on our plans now. Incidentally are there any special rules or advice, on these advance manoeuvres? ``Captain: I am not aware of any, so just watch for whirlwind turbulences, which will take the whole crew by surprise. Zimo. {Space Cavern ~ 5} ``Pilot: Bugby to Captain, permission to dock on S182 over. ``Captain: Approved on top-side over. [Clonk] ``Pilot: Opening hatches. Come on through, Master, Vanna & Tetra. ``Tetra: Closing hatches. Bugby to Radio, dropping down on Cosmo over. ``Radio: Confirmed. [Clonk] ``Tetra: Opening & Closing hatches. ``Pilot: Bugby to S182. Lifting off and hovering over. ``Captain: Captain to Radio, dropping down on top of S172 over. ``Radio: Confirmed. [Clonk] ``Malcolm: Securing hatches. ``Captain: Lifting off with S172 over. {Cosmo Bridge ~ 3} ``Master: Start up sequence. Stage 1. --- Stage 2. --- Stage 3. --- She does sound different. ``Vanna: All lights are in the green, and undercarriage lights are still red. ``Tetra: I have laid a course in for orbit height, ``Master: We will lift off slowly on manual. Switching thrusters on. Vanna? ``Vanna: Switch on, and the lamp has lit up. ``Tetra: Cosmo to Radio, Pilot and Captain we are ready to lift off over. ``Pilot: Bugby to Cosmo, you are cleared for lift off. ``Vanna: Master, watch out for whirlwind turbulences. ``Master: Zarfs Vanna. Okay, lifting off. Blimey another dust storm. ``Tetra: 100m, 500m. Undercarriage up Vanna. ``Vanna: Pressing button now. ``Master: Red lights have diminished. ``Tetra: 1km and ascending. 100Km and 280Km and orbit height. ``Master: Lock orbit. Auto pilot on and I need a drink. I am shaking like a leaf. ``Vanna: Come on through to the Mess and have some of our, instant Earth coffee. ``Captain: S182 dropping down with S172 over, ``Radio: Confirmed. [Thump] ``Malcolm: Releasing hatches and securing hatches. ``Captain: S182 Lifting off and returning to Space Dock over. ``Pilot: Zarfs Captain over. Bugby to Radio dropping down, down. ``Radio: Confirmed. ``Pilot: Blimey, I can land on my Apron. {Cosmo Mess ~ 3} ``Master: I think it was fear of that lot dropping down on top of us. ``Vanna: Is it the first time you have ever done this? ``Master: Zaa. I have never done anything this big, before. ``Tetra: Drinks. ``Master: Zarfs. ``Vanna: We have plenty of food, so we can all eat shortly. ``Master: Can I have another cup of this coffee quin? ``Vanna: Certus. I will prepare 3 more drinks. Thinking about it, this is a real achievement. Food time! ``Master: Marvellous, I needed it. ``Tetra: I too needed it.
