After a few moments to warm her up and make sure she is running fine, "Going to start her slow." Corran pulls back on the controls and lifts several feet off the ground and holds there for another few moments to ensure the ship wont fail in some way and plummet back to the ground.
Looking at his companions and satisfied with the results, he pulls back again to raise her more and engages the engines to slowly maneuver the ship. "I think she's good to go, now lets see what she can do. Strap in." giving his companions a chance to restrain themselves he then pushes the levers forward on the engine power and the ship takes off through the sky at a break neck pace crossing out over the sea.
"Handles pretty well for being so old."
