My suggestion to take a shuttle was to give Galloway an option to come along, since Solluk is squarely an engineer now, and was already ordered to accompany. It wasn't meant to exclude Galloway; I figured you'd be co-pilots. It was K'lizh who suggested Solluk pilot. So there may have been some wires crossed somewhere.
Tags to Solluk and K'lizh, general to the runabout team.
