Editing Conn

Formally, the '''"conn"''' of a [[Colonial Fleet (RDM)|Colonial Fleet]] warship is the collective name for its helm controls: yaw, pitch, and roll.

The term is also used to grant command of a ship from a commanding officer to a subordinate, typically an [[Executive officer]].

After placing ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' in a precarious situation that required his engineering leadership to save the ship, Commander [[Barry Garner]] tells Major {{callsign|Lee Adama}}, "You have the conn" {{TRS|The Captain's Hand}}.

==Notes==

* Transfers of command or ship's watch haven't been consistently shown in the [[Re-imagined Series]]. One scene in "[[Final Cut]]," after a Raider engagement, shows Colonel [[Saul Tigh|Tigh]] telling Lieutenant [[Felix Gaeta|Gaeta]] that he "has the deck" as both Tigh and Commander [[William Adama|Adama]] leave CIC. Despite the different terminology used, this command is consistent with Gaeta's role as Senior Officer of the Watch in seasons 1 and 2 of the series.
