Margaret "Racetrack"[1] Edmondson is a Raptor pilot that frequently serves as "ECO of the Week" in a number of episodes, a title she inherits from Alex "Crashdown" Quartararo after he is shot in the back on Kobol.
She is often used as a plot tool whenever anything unexpectedly goes wrong. Her exploits include a substantial list of frakups, including:
- forgetting to mention Boomer's freakout aboard the Basestar until after Boomer shot Commander Adama (Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II)
- failure to notice a bomb strapped to the bottom of her Raptor (The Son Also Rises)
- failure to notice an incoming Cylon fleet because she was too busy playing cards (Crossroads, Part I)
- flying her Raptor into Colonial One after blowing out the Raptor's engines (Dirty Hands)
- losing her escort ship while bringing it through a star system (The Passage)
- jumping to the wrong coordinates during the Caprica Search and Rescue mission on the very first jump (Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I)
- failure to properly land her Raptor after losing a single thruster (Embrace Verbosity)
- siding against the Old Man in a doomed-from-the-start mutiny
- smashing headlong into an asteroid and posthumously blasting the hell out of The Colony[2]
Of course, none of those match her "Starbuckian" frakup of intergalactic proportions: discovering Nu Craprica!
