Also, if we do get the 8 new Vertibirds, high priority has to be integrating the Boomers into our society ASAP since that'd be our best bet at a source of trained pilots that doesn't rely on having our only trained (and Boone-suspicion raising) pilot stuck doing that for the next year. Once we do have them though, god damn would they make expansion north easy. Utah is a very mountainous region, so being able to bypass the difficulties of foot-travel would greatly improve our ability to conduct offensives and push against enemies in unexpected ways, especially in winter. Plus that refuelling station might have other useful gear besides just the Vertibirds given the similarity to the Remnants bunker.
