parry hasn't been used for that turn.

Notes:
The flightcycle is a pure air machine, all power comes from the
movement systems. When you're out of gas, all that's left is a standard
car battery; you can power the stereo and/or the headlight for a while,
or call for help on the radio, but it'll run down pretty quickly and
is needed to restart the turbines.

Notes:
The back of the torso opens like a filing cabinet drawer to load
the boot, which can hold 200Kg
A (long!) keypad sequence or voiceprint match is required to disable
the security lock, a different, shorter keycode or spoken command will
open the boot.

Notes:
Amanda's summoning transmitter is built into a brooch Freddie gave her.
There is an aerodynamic shield that protects the rider(s) from
supersonic airflow, but can't stop weapons. It also streamlines over the
cockpit, reducing drag and keeping bugs/rain/snow/etc. in the slipstream.
