Keep going Elli – A short Story
Walli pushed back against the stick with as much strength as he could muster, and trained to read the blurred out dial gauges in front of him as the furious shaking intensified. The 4 Schmidding rocket boosters were violently burning through their remaining fuel. As he craft accelerated, it began a slow roll. While the aerodynamicists had done everything they could to balance the powerful forces of the rocket boosters by arranging them around the aircrafts roll axis, minor misalignments in the construction of the airframe due to the crude conditions under which they were built, resulted in some airframes experiencing aerodynamic imbalances during the booster-climb phase of flight. The series was put into production before all of the fabrication issues could be worked out, and this morning, Walli found himself at the controls of one of the more poorly-constructed examples.
Zooming skyward to intercept the incoming enemy bombers, his vision of the horizon was now obscured by the nose of the aircraft. He tried to check the simple artificial horizon installed on the small instrument panel in front of him, but the violent shaking, acceleration, and fumes had caused his eyes to water and his vision to blur. He instinctively shifted his stick pressure ever so slightly to the right to correct the roll and glanced out the right side of the canopy to check the effectiveness of his control input. “Steady on” he thought.
