Here are some of the members of the crew of the TCS Midway with short biographical notes.
[ Casey | Maestro | Blair | Stiletto | Zero | Finley | Spyder | Rachel | Dallas ]

Name.......... : Lance R. Casey Rank.......... : 1st Lieutenant Callsign...... : - Current Status : Active Lance Casey joins his comrades in the TCS Midway Briefing room |
Casey comes aboard the Midway just after graduating from the Academy. He has been one of the first pilots to graduate and has been sent on the Midway as his first assignment on a ship. Lance is the son of "Iceman" Casey, who was a pilot aboard the TCS Tiger's Claw during the Kilrathi war. Iceman died in combat, ambushed by an overwhelming Kilrathi force, two months before his son was born. Casey's main problem with being the son of a hero is that everyone thinks he had an easy life at the Academy and that he was sent on the Midway not for his merits, but for his name; therefore Casey has to prove himself and his abilities during his tour on the Midway: the chances to do this will not be few. |

Name.......... : Maxwell Garrett Rank.......... : 2nd Lieutenant Callsign...... : Maestro Current Status : Active 2nd Lt. Garrett taking part to a victory party in Pilot's Country after the success of a mission |
Maestro is Casey's best friend. They graduated together at the Acedemy and then he was moved along with Casey to the Midway after trying to arrange a simple diplomatic assignment for both of them. He's a good and reliable pilot, loyal and close to Casey as much as family. |

Name.......... : Christopher Blair Rank.......... : Commodore Callsign...... : Maverick Current Status : MIA (Missing in action) Commodore Blair aboard the TCS Midway during the ships's maiden voyage. |
After his long career as a fighter pilot and his supposed promotion to Brigadier General after the Border Worlds crisis, Blair has now left the Space Forces and entered the Fleet with the rank of Commodore. Blair developed the new super-carriers of the Midway class and his assignment on the TCS Midway consists in observing how the ship performs in combat situations. The Alien invasion surely is a good testing ground for the Midway's offensive/defensive capabilities. Infact Blair wanted the ship to be as powerful as an entire battle fleet, bigger than any other Terran carrier and with the widest fighter complement ever embarked. Blair's status in the end of WCP is MIA: he might be dead aboard an alien installation or he could have escaped death somehow, yet we don't know. I think it's not right : Blair survived many hardest missions and he's now supposed to be dead in that way? I hope the guys at Origin will change their minds about this. |

Name.......... : Jean Talvert Rank.......... : 1st Lieutenant Callsign...... : Stiletto Current Status : Active Jean Talvert taking part to a mission briefing aboard the TCS Midway |
As Casey arrives on the Midway, Stiletto is currently in charge of the Diamondback squadron,
the one to which both Casey and Maestro had been assigned. Stiletto is a skilled pilot, cold and
sharp as her own callsign suggests. Anyway she's a good element to have in your wing.Casey: "Where's Stiletto?" Maestro: "Who cares? Probably she's somewhere in a pack of ice!" :-)))))) |

Name.......... : Terrence O'Hearn Rank.......... : 1st Lieutenant Callsign...... : Zero Current Status : Active A shot of Lt. O'Hearn taken during one of his visits to Pilot's Country |
Zero is another Midway pilot and one of Casey's new friends. His piloting skills are good enough and he's also a reliable wingman. His father was a Confed scientist who's been working during the Kilrathi war as an expert on the Cats; he studied their history, their technology, even their behaviour saying that in the end that information would let the Terrans win the Kilrathi. Well, maybe he was right after all. |

Name.......... : Aurora Finley Rank.......... : Lieutanant Commander Callsign...... : <none> Current Status : Active Commander Finley working hard to solve the mistery behind the new alien threat |
Finley is the officier in charge of the operations of the Science Division aboard the Midway. Her task is to explain what seems unexplicable, even where these alien bugs are coming from. Her work and her scientific knoweledge will be instrumental in the defeat of the aliens. Moreover she's a nice woman, haven't you noticed? (O.k., but Flint's definetely better :-)) |

Name.......... : Mark Bowen Rank.......... : Major Callsign...... : Spyder Current Status : Active Major Bowen packing Hawk's properties after his death |
Spyder is one of the senior officiers on the Midway, flying in the Black Widows Squadron. He's a bit rude with newcomers, nevertheless his behaviour doesn't affect his judgement of a pilot: infact Spyder proves to be a reliable wingman as well as an experienced wing leader. |

Name.......... : Rachel Coriols Rank.......... : Chief Tech Callsign...... : <none> Current Status : Active Chief tech Coriolis, one of Confed's best mechanics, busy with her job on the flight deck |
Rachel is back working on fighters aboard the Midway. She knows her job well and will make your fighter fly even better than it used to before. Anyway don't bring her back only spare parts of your ship or even worse no fighter at all: she'd be capable of kicking you out of the Flight roster... |

Name.......... : Jason Fargo Rank.......... : 2nd Lieutenant Callsign...... : Dallas Current Status : KIA (Deceased) A shot of Lt. Fargo taken while he was checking his investiments on Earth from the Midway's Briefing Room |
If you picture all pilots as brave heroes of Confed... well you'll need to change that picture after meeting Dallas: nervous, impressionable and easy to get scared, Dallas signed with the Navy only for the cash; as he was used to said "cash's everything". In the cockpit he wasn't very flashy and if action got too hot Dallas was likely to lose his head: this probably costed him his life during one of the alien's many attempts to destroy the Midway. |
