Louanne "Kat" Katraine is a young woman with some flying experience. She was selected as a candidate pilot ("nugget") for Viper training under the command of Lieutenant Kara "Starbuck" Thrace (Act of Contrition). While she may still be a new pilot, she has a taste for fighting, and is often on the front lines when Galactica engages Cylon forces.
Biography[edit]
Katraine is a young woman in her early 20's, who is selected from relative obscurity to become one of Galactica's first intake of trainee pilots after 13 experienced pilots were killed in a freak accident (Act of Contrition).
Described as a "boonie jumper", she was placed under the instruction of Kara Thrace, alongside nugget pilots Constanza and Perry, with whom she formed a friendship.
Thrown in at the deep end - flying Vipers on their very first day of training, none of the nuggets performed particularly well - Kat in particular failed to make a combat landing on Galactica. This leads to the entire group of candidates being washed out by Thrace, prior to being reinstated on the orders of Commander William Adama.
Katraine's training continued until she is selected to fly with Lee Adama during a raid to secure tylium desposits from the Cylons (The Hand of God). Her fellow nuggets Perry and Stepchild were killed in this action, but she and Constanza survived it and were greated as heroes upon their return to Galactica.
She also participated in the defense of Galactica when the battlestar become separated from the Fleet, and had to face down a Cylon basestar in order to relocate it. ("Scattered")
After Lee Adama's defection to the Laura Roslin faction, his replacement, the newly promoted Captain George Birch negligently endangered Katraine during a training exercise. She was almost killed when Birch incorrectly directed her to attack an asteroid target as Constanza fired a missile at the target. Katraine's piloting skills saved her from a dangerous collision with debris (Home, Part I).
By the time of the episode "Final Cut", Kat had been promoted from cadet to the rank of Lieutenant. She became increasingly exhausted due to the mounting pressures of service in the Fleet with long hours, constant danger, and no possiblity of reinforcement. While trying to combate her fatigue, Kat became dependent on stims. Following this she became emotionally unstable; mooning a documentary crew for her "buddies" on Freighter 212, berating Chief Tyrol for mechanical failures that were beyond his control, and finally crashing her Viper into the flight deck, totalling the vehicle ("Final Cut, Flight of the Phoenix). She was removed from flight status for some time, but was reinstated by the time of the episode "Pegasus", when she flew wingman to Apollo in the CAP that made first contact with Pegasus.
Notes[edit]
Katraine's first name was revealed in the episode "Final Cut".
Some of Kat's family may also have survived the Fall of the Twelve Colonies - Kat shouted "Hi, Mom!" while waving into the camera in "Final Cut". However, she may have been speaking facetiously.
