Evaluation:
Very fast paced
story. It is the type of story that could be expanded to a long story
but probably does better as a short or episodic story. The details
may get slightly cumbersome for a reader not interested or unfamiliar with
avaiation and its corresponding technology. Good implication of character
history through dialogue and economical use of speech. Though the
vercaity of avaition style could not be verified as logical responses to
events that occured, the piece has definite flavor of reality to it.
Use of 1st person, present tense while limiting definitely makes the story
flow quickly and efficiently. It would be interesting to see another
episodic on characters.
