Nah - you are not overthinking it. I mean they kind of addressed it a few episodes back when Starbuck was training volunteers from the fleet. That is where "Hotdog" came from. What I think would be harder to replace are the Vipers themselves. I mean the Glactica was being converted to a Museum and didn't have a lot of fighters aboard and even then they had very few of the Newer ones (Mark VII I Think). The entire Starboard landing bay was already switched over to Museaum duty - so how many fighters could there be there? They would have to be manufactering them on other ships or something. I dunno. I keep waiting for the Pegasus to appear with some more Vipers. That is how they did it in the Original - the Pegasus gave all their fighters to the Galactica and went on a Suicide mission with a Base Star. Heck, I miss Sheba (I had a MAJOR crush on her - so pretty).
I am frustrated by the fact that no one knows that Baltar is a bad guy and find his scenes to be bothersome for that reason. Not enough Baltar, not until he is in the Stockade (or dead). I suppose that kind of reaction means he is a good charachter though - I am supposed to hate him.
