Luckily we wont have to wait too long, we can get back to the RP with minimal players. I'll do a time skip thatll explain where we left off and which pilots are back at the iceland base.

If we provisionally have

Nishizawa (scanner)
Kerry (SW)
Jango (Fixer)

We would only need our ace and hunter at minimum to get started again, and the rest could join whenever they felt.
