Title: “Learning To Fly”
In the 23rd century, humanity is fighting a new kind of battle. This battle is not only fought with hi-tech weaponry and vessels, but across time itself. A Temporal Attack Craft can engage an enemy anywhere and anywhen!
The Red Wing are the cadets who command the TAC and fight back the enemy wherever they can. All of The Red Wing carry temporal beacons so that they can be located in case they crash in a different time. The beacon also shields the cadet from the ravages of time, which will ensure their swift death. There is one major caveat – if their beacon runs out of power or the power cell is damaged, the shield disappears.
