Occasionally he would glance over to the other man, whose gloved hands darted expertly around the dashboard, cranking dials round, adjusting small levers and pressing knobs here and there when necessary. His hands weren't a blur, but there was definite fluidity which could only have come from hours of practice and preparation. He was probably the only person who could fly the thing too - no doubt he'd forgotten to write an instruction manual when he'd built it. "
