Captain '''Raymond "Raygun" Lai''' is presumed to have been a Colonial pilot in the days when the [[Viper Mark II]] was in active service prior to its successor, the [[Viper Mark VII]].
==Notes==
 
A Viper with Lai's name (tail number [[Viper 8547|8547]]) was part of a squadron of Viper Mark IIs in the [[Galactica Museum]].
 
After word of [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|renewed Cylon attacks on the Colonies]] and with no ordnance for the recently-decommissioned ''{{RDM|Galactica}}'' and few Viper Mark VIIs on board, Commander [[William Adama]] orders the deployment of the museum Vipers in the ship's defense. Lai's Viper is piloted by [[Kara Thrace]] in ''Galactica''{{'|s}} first sortie since the [[Cylon War]].


Starbuck's skillful piloting of Lai's old Viper, despite a strike that damaged one of its engines, saves ''Galactica'' from possibly fatal damage after Starbuck shoots down two of three kiloton [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] nuclear missiles fired by a [[Cylon Raider (RDM)|Raider]] that target the [[Galactica type battlestar|old battlestar]] {{TRS|Miniseries, Night 1}}.{{clear}}
*Ray Lai was a concept artist for the 2003 miniseries. Some of his work can be seen on [http://www.galactica2003.net/articles/laiconceptart.shtml Galactica.TV]
==Notes==


*[[File:Mini-Raygun.jpg|thumb|[[Kara Thrace]] in '''Raygun''''s [[Viper 8547|Viper]] {{TRS|Miniseries, Night 1}}.]][[Ray Lai]] was a concept artist for the 2003 [[Miniseries]]. His name appears in the show as an honorific.
*Raymond "Raygun" Lai can be seen on the [[Air Group Organization Chart]], in the flight led by [[Kara Thrace]] ([[The Passage]]). This is clearly a gaffe.
*in the episode "[[The Passage]]," Raymond "Raygun" Lai can be seen on the air group organization chart in the squadron led by Kara Thrace. Since this mentioned-only character existed in the long past of the series's characters, possibly during or shortly after the [[Cylon War]], this mention on the chart is a [[Continuity errors (RDM)|continuity error]].
