thebitterguyOh, man. Back to the WotC SWSTCMG preview page, part 2, and I just had a geekgasm.
Nevertheless, Luke's reputation as a skilled pilot might have been overstated somewhat, at least in the early years. By the time the second Death Star was destroyed, Luke had lost no fewer than four X-wings:
# The first was lost the day after the Battle of Yavin when Luke encountered a stray TIE fighter that had survived the battle.
# Not long thereafter, Luke crashed an X-wing on Mimban after encountering a severe electrical storm.
# Another survived a crash landing on Dagobah only to be abandoned on Bespin after the Empire took over Cloud City.
# Almost immediately after Luke's recovery from his duel with Darth Vader, he lost yet another X-wing when he encountered a Rebel corvette that had been taken over by Special Probe Droid 13-K.
I mean, I know that's some huge fanservice, but they mention Splinter of the Mind's Eye AND a really cool issue of the Marvel series.
