The Larkinson ace pilots had fought long enough to come up with a lot of demands for upgrades and improvements.
Ves entertained the personal requests but did not substantially go into them. This should be Gloriana's responsibility. They had too little time on their hands to satisfy every whim, so they had to be careful about picking and choosing which demands to meet.
He soon ended his talks with the ace pilots after catching up with them. As much as he wanted to learn more about their experiences, he still had to meet with a lot of other people.
Half an hour went by as Ves continued to chat with one dignitary after another.
Of course, not everyone possessed the qualifications to chat him up. He was a tier 2 galactic citizen, after all. A combined staff of both Terran attendants as well as his own assistants stationed around him and gently sorted out the people who deserved a moment of his time.
