Due to the Mapple headquarter being so large it was difficult to notice before arriving the amount of ships stationed, but after the conference ended the sky was filled with zeppelins setting flight in a hurry. The smaller ships took off from inside hangars, others from the top of the roofs of the buildings while some of the bigger ships were so far they needed approach vehicles to reach their ships.
Despite having a smaller engine and propellers, the ships had a considerable advantage when it came to both landing and setting off. They also gained momentum much faster than the bigger ships. This allowed the crew from multiple ships to study their competitors during the process of taking off to gauge their chances against them.
