Helena spent a couple hours down in the launch bay going over both of the shuttle pods. Pre-flight checks and even managed to grab an engineer to help her and check a couple of issues that had shown up during her checks. They got everything ironed out and then she took the first pod out for a flight test. That included a lap and then taking the pod down through the atmosphere landing and back up. Then the same for the second pod.

Back in the launch bay, Helena opened the hatch and walked over to the comm unit and pressed the button. =O=Captain Renault to the launch bay.=O=
