Focus, Poe. Focus.
He lurched to the controls and through him down in the seat. No fucking window. Great? Great. The controls basically ammounted to 'blast off, then sit down and shut the fuck up while the computer puts you into a stable orbit'. He swore under his breath, but slammed the ejector release button, the whole thing lurching as they launched away from the moon base. At least it had been outfitted with some anti-grav tech. That was a relief. He picked up the comm.
