Hi John,
Thanks for contributing!  It's nice to see that the site's picking up now!
Actually, there are bits of information on the Galactica.tv (or Galactica2003.tv) website that are suspect, such as Tigh's first name being "Paul", as opposed to the canonized "Saul".  We mainly use the episodes for canonical information; the Zoic, as the Colonial Archivist (Ernestborg9) can tell you, is mainly conjecture unless canonical info shows up to disprove it.
However, [[Battlestar|Battlestars]] in general carry 6-8 sqads; [[Galactica]] does carry two.  (Or did, as I'm sure that the <i>Galactica</i> is now left with, at most, one full squadron of Mark IIs from the [[Mini-Series]], over the course of the series.)

I think the "fan estimate" of 6-8 Viper squads is off. According to http://galactica.tv/colonials/galacticatv.shtml, the Galactica had only 2 Viper squadrons. Since it was a museum ship, it's possible this is less than the usual complement.

Actually, there are bits of information on the Galactica.tv (or Galactica2003.tv) website that are suspect, such as Tigh's first name being "Paul", as opposed to the canonized "Saul". We mainly use the episodes for canonical information; the Zoic, as the Colonial Archivist (Ernestborg9) can tell you, is mainly conjecture unless canonical info shows up to disprove it.

However, Battlestars in general carry 6-8 sqads; Galactica does carry two. (Or did, as I'm sure that the Galactica is now left with, at most, one full squadron of Mark IIs from the Mini-Series, over the course of the series.)
