The Goose skidded to a alnding on Lake Gatun. Harv taxied it to his landing, called, oddly enough, Adrian's Landing. He never quite understood why it had that name. It was just a stretch of shore when he took it over and after that everyone started calling it Adrian's Landing. He felt sure that it ought to be Wallbanger's Landing, or at the very least Goos Landing. He shrugged. Right now, he had bigger things to worry about.
Vivaldi jumped out and pulled the mooring lines to their stantions, which were palm trees. Harv shut down the engines and did his final checklist. He hoped that the socks' plan worked and it wasn't also his "final" checklist.
He jumped to shore. Miyatake and Fujimora were there already, Vera held between them.
"Mr. Wallbanger, if you please. What do you call that maneuver that you and the dog used in our fight that ended so dishonorably?"
"The Harvaldi."
"Ah. Just know, that I have spent the day in contamplating the moves and have devised a means of countering it, should we have occasion to test our skills once more."
"Then all you have to worry about is the Reverse Harvaldi, I guess."
Fujimora's lips moved silently. His eyes widened in fear.
"Enough talk!" said Miyatake, "Get the cannisters out of the plane and into the sailboat."
"You're stealing my boat?"
"I doubt you will have much use for it after today, Mr. Wallbanger."
Harv and Fujimora started unloading four cylinders from the cargo bay of the Goose.
