*On the cover of the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', the two Banshees appear to be un-piloted as the top canopy enclosing the driver is up. Also, the two Banshees that shot down [[Foehammer]] also had open canopies. These were probably related to the Banshee's scripted movements, while the former could be an early version. | *On the cover of the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', the two Banshees appear to be un-piloted as the top canopy enclosing the driver is up.

*In ''Halo 3'' if you manage to board a Banshee in the Scarab fight on [[The Covenant]], it will automatically explode when you exit the craft, much like the [[AA Wraith]]. Only Banshees that have been disabled by shooting the Brute pilot out of the cockpit behave like normal Banshees, i.e. when dismounting the Banshee does not automatically explode. Disabling the Banshee is naturally easier on lower difficulties, due to the lower health of the individual pilot. Strangely, a hijacked Banshee in the aerial battle above Tower 3 won't detonate when the player exits it. | *In ''Halo 3'' if you manage to board a Banshee in the Scarab fight on [[The Covenant]], it will automatically explode when you exit the craft, much like the [[AA Wraith]].

*This may only be done on ''Halo 3'': if you do a backflip and get out during the backflip, the Banshee will wiggle about before diving, sometimes damaging and even killing you. | *This may only be done on ''Halo 3'': if you do a backflip and get out during the backflip, the Banshee will wiggle about before diving, sometimes damaging and even killing you.
