	ECOs are also trained to fly a Raptor in case the primary pilot is incapacitated or unavailable. [[Alex Quartararo\|Alex "Crashdown" Quartararo]] pilots his Raptor when his pilot [[Karma]] is killed ~~([[~~Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part I~~]])~~. [[Margaret Edmondson\|Margaret "Racetrack" Edmondson]] has served as both pilot and ECO on several occasions ("[[Fragged]]", "[[Final Cut]]").

[[Margaret Edmondson\|Margaret "Racetrack" Edmondson]] has served as both pilot and ECO on several occasions ("[[Fragged]]", "[[Final Cut]]").

	As [[Galactica (RDM)\|''Galactica'']] initially faces chronic pilot and ship shortages, ECOs such as Agathon and Edmondson often pull "double-duty" as either pilot or ECO as assigned by the [[CAG]]. After the [[New Caprica]] exodus, this was less of an issue ([[Torn]]), but after the events of [[Gaeta's Mutiny]], personnel shortages left the pilots of Raptors searching for habitable planets flying without ECOs ([[Someone to Watch Over Me]]).
