-'''"Drifter"''' is a type of [[Colonial Fleet]] distress call where a pilot must eject.
-Based on the context used in the episode, "[[Resurrection Ship, Part II]]", the distress call "Drifter, drifter, drifter" indicates that a Colonial pilot's fighter is out of control in a combat situation, whereby the pilot must eject to safety.
-[[Viper (RDM)|Viper pilot]] [[Lee Adama]] calls out the "drifter" distress call after his [[Blackbird]] stealth fighter is struck by a passing [[Raider]] moments after he disables the FTL drive on the [[Resurrection Ship]], preventing it from escaping. The Blackbird disintegrates moments after Adama ejects.
-When a pilot is in distress but not in a combat situation where rescue would be hazardous and ejection is not necessary, the distress code that a pilot may use may be "[[krypter]]" instead.
