Paolo "Redwing" McKay[1] is a Viper pilot aboard Galactica.

McKay participates in the Battle of New Caprica, flying as Brendan "Hot Dog" Costanza's wingman (TRS: "Exodus, Part II").

Later, McKay leads a CAP with Margaret "Racetrack" Edmonson and Hamish "Skulls" McCall, before the Raptor loses control and violently crash-lands in Galactica's port landing bay (TRS: "Escape Velocity").

McKay is part of the pilots stationed on the rebel Cylons' baseship for a joint attack mission on the Resurrection Hub.
