Riggs

"I've got one on my six!"

- Riggs' last words

Riggs was an F-302 pilot. In 2009, he was one of several pilots under the command of John Sheppard repelling a wave of Wraith darts which had been launched from the ZPM-powered hive ship.

As the battle progressed in the skies over Area 51, two darts broke off and headed on a collision course with the Ancient control chair, the last line of defense for Earth. Riggs and Sheppard chased the darts, but in turn two other darts came up behind them. Riggs' fighter was hit by a dart's energy weapon and exploded, killing him.
