In this image, Cassia Capuchin the service monkey-- who grows up to be the love interest of Mr. Hal Gibson-- is using the Whirligig (Madam "Granny" Esimia's private helicopter) as a training vehicle to obtain the flying skills she'd eventually use for her rocket to Shuggazoom. Unfortunately, her flight instructor, whom she nicknamed "Grunt", isn't very verbal, and he doesn't speak monkey. Normally, this isn't such a big deal, as they usually speak to each other in Sign Language anyhow, but up in the air... though safer then driving a car on the street... pilots still have to be aware of their surroundings so they don't crash into birds, mountains, and other flying machines, and they'd have to be aware of their vehicle itself in case of technical difficulties.

In all honesty, in this particular moment, Cassia simply has no idea what went wrong, but before either of them knew it, the young Capuchin-- allowed to fly the chopper herself for a brief moment or two-- was steering the Whirligig upside down, and Grunt was waving his arm back and forth as a flight instructor's signal to level off the flying machine... that, or he was threatening to hit her in the back of the head if she doesn't relinquish the controls to him before they crash! Whichever the case, Cassia was soon frantically pushing buttons and flipping switches trying to correct the angle of their flight. Long story short, they both survive this flight without a scratch, but it was extremely clear that she still had a lot to learn about flying at the time. She gets better at it in due time, though... much MUCH better.

(copies of this image are now up for sale... not! I tried though, because it was big enough, but there were no takers so it is now off the market.)
