Republic pilots were those pilots who fought for the Galactic Republic. In the time of the Clone Wars, some Republic pilots who were not clone soldiers served in the Republic Navy, and one of them, Captain Bythen Forral, rose to the rank of ace. In the era of the Galactic Civil War, the Imperial TIE fighter pilot known as Ganem Kahi feared that if he showed any support for the Alliance to Restore the Republic, five generations of deceased Republic pilots would rise up to seek vengeance upon him.
