Quick Anders meta before work
This is speculation based on spoilers...
There's a rumor flying around that Sam's going to become a pilot.
And as much as it makes me laugh, it also makes a kind of sense, for him. We've always known one big thing about him: the cylons take away what he has and he fights back.
Caprica nuked? Sam gathered a bunch of people and did crappily, but still smacked at those occupying his planet.
Wife taken? He's part of the people running the resistance, sending suicide bombers off.
Wife dead? The only thing he can do that might give him a physical confrontation of any sort with the cylons is fly a viper. Marines are useless when there's no ground war going on.
So, yeah. There's a scary sort of sense in Sam becoming a viper pilot. If, y'know, he'd fit in the cockpit. (too tall, Sam. Too tall!)

Maybe some of the Peggy pilots are good enough to train 'em? There used to be a Captain Case, but gods know what happened to HER.
