I do not own anything except for Cecelia, her family, and Catalina. All rights go to Paramount Studios, Tom Cruise, and Joseph Kosinski.

All photos of planes/jets used (unless stated otherwise) were taken by me at my Uncle's US National Guard retirement back in 2018. He flew for the Airforce for a number of years before being honorably discharged and joining the National Guard.

I would just like to say that all my OCs are actors mostly known for Broadway. Matthew Broderick is probably best known as Ferris Bueller and Bebe Neuwirth for Nora Shepard in the Jumanji franchise. Christy, Mike, and Ben are all primarily stage actors but have branched into TV and movies (most notably Mike and Ben were in 2021's West Side Story.) And unless you've been living under a rock, Ariana Debose has just won an OSCAR for her portrayal of Anita in 2021's West Side Story and is an incredibly actress and force for the LGBTQ+ community.
