The '''Colonial shuttle''' is a large, twin-engined cargo craft. The shuttle is unarmed, but is capable of carrying a [[landram]] (or [[snowram]]) and cargo in addition to a crew compliment.<br />
<br />
Shuttles are equipped with a loading ramp that allows for rapid deployment of the stowed vehicle ([[The Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Part I (TOS)|The Gun on Ice Planet Zero]]). Shuttles can also be used for deploying parachute troops, dropping out of the shuttle from a special chamber ([[The Living Legend, Part II]]).<br />
<br />
In the hours after the [[Battle of Cimtar|Cylon attack on the Colonies]], shuttles of this type ferried survivors from ships in the [[The Fleet (TOS)|new civilian fleet]] to [[Galactica (TOS)|''Galactica'']] for medical treatment ([[Saga of a Star World]]).<br />
<br />
While the cockpit has seating for two pilots, the rear compartment has ample room for large numbers of civilian passengers. <br />
<br />
In addition, shuttles are outfitted with emergency channels, which relay telemetry to their home base on the condition of the ship ([[The Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Part I]]). <br />
<br />
This shuttle is also used in ''[[Galactica 1980]]'', in particular [[Shuttle Alpha]], a craft that ferries the [[Super Scouts]] to [[Earth (1980)|Earth]] ([[The Super Scouts, Part I]]).<br />

==Notes==<br />
*Most of the shuttle footage used in the series is stock footage from the series premiere, "[[Saga of a Star World]]". The shuttle featured in that episode was labeled "[[GAL 356]]", leaving the later impression that all shuttles in the fleet, whether from ''Galactica'' or ''Pegasus'', have the markings "GAL 356".<br />

*A Colonial shuttle is seen at the start of the [[Miniseries]] as it ferries the [[Colonial Fleet (RDM)|Colonial Fleet]]'s [[Armistice Officer]] from [[Picon Fleet Headquarters]] to [[Armistice Station]].<br />
*Another shuttle of this type is seen in the [[Galactica (RDM)|''Galactica'']] exhibition in the [[Miniseries]], while working models are still used in the Fleet ([[The Woman King]]). Whether this is an indication that such shuttles are used aboard ''Galactica'' is unknown.<br />
