[001 ¤ Video] Flight Hazards & Preparations

[winged_knight]

[Hello citizens and guests of Saeng Seong, one of your resident giant robots is addressing you today from the terminal on the bottom floor of Building One. He has no problem getting the terminal on even if the buttons are a little undersized for his fingers, but the feed opens to a shot of sleek gray thighs and hip skirting panels before he squats down to smile into the camera.]

Greetings, to those of you whom I haven't met, my name is Wing. I have a message--a warning really--and a question for you all.

Firstly, to those of you capable of flight, please do be careful. The power drain that effects the closed off sections of the city does not dissipate with altitude. And well, withdrawals while flying is...not pleasant nor conducive to staying airborne. [He makes a very not-so-happy face; clearly he found this out the hard way.]

[And yes that means he's been flying around the city a bit the past two weeks or so. Jets aren't exactly the quietest of vehicles, even energon efficient ones, so you may have even spotted the white and red alien jet exploring the airspace over the city at some point.]

Lastly, is there anyone here who has experience or information regarding the needs of humanoids for safe flight in a vehicle? Such as oxygen mix, tolerance for g-forces and the like? I need data for...a project I'm working on.

[America's already given him some information, but the more he has the better, given the health and wellness of any potential passengers is at risk.]

[How very curious indeed. Artemis already catches on that this energon somehow isn't able to supply power here - not that his mistrust of the people who run things around here needed any extra help.] And do you need these scientists to reconstruct this energon frequently? I imagine it's not an infinite power supply.

Frequently? [It's a matter of perspective: being well fed and optimally functional or going hungry and just getting by.] Not necessarily. But...we are dependent on them yes.

[And trust that he does not like that much at all.]

Most interesting. The place where I come from is on a steady slope to energy shortage, but sustainable versions have been made and are possible.
