Always have been, since I first grabbed a control column. I've been flying light craft since I was 14; helping my father take barely-flyable piles of scrap from repair bay to salvage yard. Officially got my license when I was 17, and applied for military flight training a year later. Figured it was a good way to jump start my career. And since my training, I can confidently say that I am one of the best at what I do. Mind you, I was originally slated to be a fighter pilot. I had gotten almost completely through my training when I decided to switch; but I'll get into that in a minute. I was in the 90th percentile of my class, even before I went to dropships. I could have named a chassis and I'd have probably had it; but after a few training sorties and simulator flights, something bothered me. Mainly the behavior of your average dropship pilot. I knew I could do better, so I did. Ever since I switched to dropships, I've continued to outpace all of my peers. There seems to be this mentality that a dropship's only job is to drop. Wrong! Their job is to get to the ground safely, and that doesn't seem to happen a lot when you get pilots who think all they have to do is reach the ground. There's evasion involved, and that doesn't involve just casually swaying back and forth. It's not like fighters are the only ones who can dance around incoming fire all day! It's like they don't want to even come near the airframe tolerances listed in their TOs, or something. So yeah, not gonna lie, my flying methods may be unorthodox, but it gets the job done, and it doesn't take a genius to recognize an almost 300% increased survivability rate in the simulators. I'd probably have gotten yelled at a lot more for not following procedure if the results didn't speak for themselves. The average casualty rate in those simulations is a little shy of 40%. Mine is about 13%. I'll grant you that I've only ever actually been deployed once, and it was... tame. I assisted with Task Force 216 in evacuating a small mining colony with limited resources. Some idiot decided to take what resources there were for himself and his entourage of fuckwit insurgents and take control of the population, and we were sent to sack them and evacuate those who wanted to flee. Most of the insurgents didn't really want to mess with us though, so admittedly, I don't have a lot of real combat experience. What I have done, however, is saved my ship from a catastrophic servo failure during a drop exercise on Vekta Prime a little over a year ago. It was pretty big news; they had to write in a new paragraph in the maintenance TOs after the investigation found out what went wrong. The landing wasn't the prettiest, but if you look at the report, you'll know that a lot of pilots couldn't have pulled what I did. Bottom line is, I've got what it takes and more. I've got more than enough skill for this assignment, and the drive to see new places and advance myself to be better at what I do."[/indent][/indent] [b]Previous Employment References:[/b] [hider=Lieutenant Commander Leonard Vincent, Instructor, 41st Flight Training Squadron] To Whom it May Concern, I was in charge of Lieutenant Kerensky's training when she came through the pipeline. I wasn't sure what to expect from a fighter jock who switched to dropships, but what I got was an extraordinary trainee whose drive was unmatched, and who had the instincts to back it up. Lieutenant Kerensky is a natural pilot who bested her entire class in flight training. I have no doubt having been in fighters beforehand had much to do with that. Her aggressive handling of larger landing craft was unorthodox, but impressive and innovative. So much so that I've incorporated a couple of maneuvers she has used into my flight training program. I have yet to enact these in live training, but ever since then, when my students are in the simulators, they've consistently had lower attrition rates. It has gained the attention of my superiors, and there is talk of attempting to push a change to normal procedures as a result of this. All of this because I had a hot-shot pilot come through and I decided to let them loose. So, with all of that being said, I believe that Lieutenant Kerensky fully deserves to be assigned to your crew, as long as you are aware that she can be a handful. -Very Respectfully, Vincent, Leonard, LCDR, UN 41st Flight Training Squadron[/hider] [hider=Commander Ulric Lovelace, Executive Officer, UNSF Mist Lynx] To Whom it May Concern, Lieutenant Kerensky showed great enthusiasm and initiative while deployed with Task Force 216. She served valiantly and was an invaluable member of the force, performing 13 hot drops and evacuating 176 individuals from the local population; roughly 19% of the total number of persons evacuated. With a total evacuation force of 7 dropships, this was well over the average number of individuals evacuated per dropship. Her tenacity and dedication to this mission helped protect many lives. After the deployment, I put in a recommendation for an award on her behalf, and she was awarded the UNSF Achievement Medal shortly thereafter. Lieutenant Kerensky is of strong moral character, and possesses an admirable drive in doing what needs to be done. I am confident that she will do well, should you accept her for this assignment. -Sincerely, Lovelace, Ulric, CDR, UN XO, UNSF Mist Lynx[/hider] [b]Biometric Signature:[/b][right] [img]https://fontmeme.com/permalink/180321/86f4eb30f1384f05e8c2b026d50f0d78.png[/img][/right] [/hider]
