There were SEVERAL complications. Readers might notice the Asymmetrical wing of the Conoy, this was due to a mid-air collision that left the top half of the Conoy's left wing somewhere in the ocean. This ability to take damage and still fly will be vital knowing the track record of Herthia's cadet aviators. The image below shows what an INTACT Conoy looks like.

A botched undocking left both aircraft in a flat spin while still attached. Thankfully the increased forces from the spin separated the craft and both were able to independently recover.

In other news, Hearthia has also begun a limited production of the "Tuff" helicopter to support our troops on the ground. Further development will follow a validation of the concept.
