DEATH STAR –\u00a0“We’re not expendable.”<\/p>\n

Those are the words of a TIE Fighter pilot stationed on the Death Star, afraid to have his name published for fear of repercussion.<\/p>\n

“In their [the Imperial Navy’s] view, the more TIE Fighters thrown at the enemy, the better chance we have at victory. I have an idea. Let’s put some decent steering control on these things first. Or even proximity indicator when we’re on the same flight path. I can’t tell you how many friends I’ve lost that have simply crashed into each other.”<\/p>\n

But the Imperial Navy doesn’t have any plans to modify the TIE Fighter or to give TIE Fighter pilots more money.<\/p>\n

“Hazard pay? Don’t make me laugh. They knew what they were getting into when they signed up to be fighter pilots,” said the Imperial Navy’s Admiral Motti.<\/p>\n

“They should just be thankful they’re not Stormtroopers. Those guys can’t even sit down properly,” he added.<\/p>\n

TIE Fighter pilots don’t appear to be backing down from this fight.<\/p>\n

“I’d like to see them try to fight a battle without us,” said the anonymous pilot.<\/p>\n

“A TIE Fighter pilot strike? Ah, sure. We don’t mind. Maybe we’d actually have one day without them crashing into the Death Star, then,” said Motti.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
