Yes, I'm aware that we're technically suitemates and I could just walk through the kitchen and ask, but if you're free sometime when the weather's clear - would you mind if I watched you fly and took some notes? Bit of a theory I'm trying to work on.

Sir,
I know I'm not enrolled in the flight class, but if you have a free period sometime this week - I was wondering if I could trouble you for a demonstration of your power? You mentioned biologically-generated combustion and chemical propulsion. I'd like to observe and take some notes for a project I'm working on.

That's precisely what I'm working on. Dr. MacTaggart gave me the idea to better understand mutant biology by looking at it on a practical level. I've seen mention of how your cybernetics work, but I haven't been able to find any technical papers on the method. I figure that means there aren't any, or they're somewhere I shouldn't be looking, so I figured the best way would be to go to the source.
Looking forward to the class.

Let me talk to the Flight class, give them some head's up. I'll get back to you with when you can sit in and observe.
