Airplanes, in Ernie's mind, were much like cars and other vehicles, and he tended to mix up terms and descriptions because, for the most part, it was all theoretical knowledge to him rather than something he saw everyday - but at least he tried. One thought stuck in his mind and he did his best to keep a straight face as he spoke it aloud. "You know, Justin, if you wanted my hand controlling your stick shift gear thing, all you had to do was ask."
Ernie shrugged. He nodded as Justin spoke - he'd done some time in other units during his training and he admired his friend for being able to keep up with the quick pace. "I'm happy for now, but I might want to change in a year or two. It depends on what my life is like. Janus Thickey is actually great if you want to start a family, but the way my love life is going, that won't be happening anytime soon. So if I had to go somehwere else, maybe poisons. That was a good training time I did there."
