    "Day 11, test 37, configuration 2.0. For lack of a better option, the dummy is still on fire safety." Kelly says.

    "If you douse me again, and I'm not on fire, I'm donating you to a city college." Tony says, "Okay, nice and easy. Seriously, just gonna start off with 1% thrust capacity. In three, two, one." Kelly hid behind a protective wall while she watched Tony. Tony hits the button and he slowly lifts off the ground and hovers for a while before he lands.

    "Okay." Tony says.

    "Yeah, we did it!" Kelly says.

    "Okay, let's bring it up to 2.5. Three, two, one." Tony says. He lifts and hovers again and Kelly watches everything. She ducks as Tony flies around the room. Tony freaks out and Kelly squeals before Tony lands on the ground again.

    "Yeah, I can fly." Tony says.

    "Ready?" Kelly asks before she passes Tony the face mask.

    "JARVIS, you there?" Tony asks.

    "At your service, sir." JARVIS says.

    "Engage Heads Up Display." Tony says.

    "Check." JARVIS says.

    "Import all preferences from home interface." Tony says.

    "Will do, sir." JARVIS says.

    "I'm going to go stand over there." Kelly says.

    "Alright, what do you say?" Tony asks.

    "I have indeed been uploaded, sir. We're only and ready." Jarvis replies.

    "I'm getting a good signal, Daddy." Kelly says.

    "Good. Can we start the virtual walk-around? Importing preferences and calibrating virtual environment." Jarvis says.

    "Do a check on control surfaces." Tony says.

    "As you wish." Jarvis says.

    "You look awesome, Daddy." Kelly says. Tony begins looking around.

    "Test complete. Preparing to power down and begin diagnostics." Jarvis says.

    "Yeah. Tell you what. Do a weather and ATC check. Start listening in on ground control." Tony says.

    "Sir, there are still terabytes of calculations needed before an actual flight is..." Jarvis warns him.

    "Jarvis, sometimes you got to run before you can walk." Tony says.

    "I don't see this ending well." Kelly says.

    "And that's why I'm the adult." Tony says, "Ready? In three, two, one." Tony lifts into the air before flying out of the tunnel and into the sky.

    "Handles like a dream." Tony says and Kelly watches everything that Tony is seeing.

    "Whoa!" Kelly says, "That looks so cool, daddy!"

    "Alright, Kelly, let's see what this thing can do. What's SR-71's record?" Tony asks.

    "The altitude record for fixed wing flight is 85,000 feet, sir." Jarvis says.

    "Records are made to be broken, come on!" Tony says.

    "Daddy, I don't think you should try to get that high on the first try." Kelly says. Tony flies up but gets iced and he manages to return to normal before flying back to the house. Moments later, Tony crashes through the ceiling and onto one of his cars.
