==Operational History==
===Battle of Installation 04===
{{Main|Battle of Installation 04}}
When that ship arrived over [[Installation 04]], the pilot of ''Echo 419'', [[Carol Rawley|Captain Carol "Foe Hammer" Rawley]], launched the Pelican as the ''Autumn'' descended into the atmosphere of the [[Halo]], thereby saving ''Echo 419'' from destruction. Other members of her wing, notably ''[[Echo 136]]'', ''[[Echo 206]]'', ''[[Bravo 022]]'', and ''[[Victor 933]]'' escaped the crashing of the ''Autumn'' in the same fashion. These five Pelicans were invaluable to the [[human]] survivors throughout the events that followed.


After departing from the ''Autumn'', ''Echo 419'' flew to the location of Major [[Antonio Silva]] and assisted in the capture of the butte that would later become [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]]. This pelican was then dispatched to evacuate other survivors of the crash who had landed on the ring on [[bumblebee|lifepods]], including the [[Master Chief]] and [[Cortana]]. ''Echo 419'' then stayed on station while the [[Spartan-II]] and [[AI]] decided to rescue survivors of several more lifepods in danger of being overrun by the [[Covenant]]. ''Echo 419'' then took all survivors, the Master Chief and Cortana back to Alpha Base.

Line 16: Line 69:
''Echo 419'' was apparently in the air around the crash site of the ''Pillar of Autumn'' again after the Chief and Cortana detonated the fusion generators of the ship. As she neared the rendezvous point, ''Echo 419'' was damaged by two [[Banshees]] that damaged it's fusion power output, this caused her to lose control of her pelican and while smoke trailed from the back, the pelican went down onto the surface of the Halo. It is a possibility that she and her crew survived the crash, seeing the pelican slowing down from the bridge, but was certainly killed after the destruction of [[Halo]].

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The title, ''Echo 419'' comes from the military [[wikipedia:phonetic alphabet|phonetic alphabet]] ''E''. So the craft is actually "called" E419 as is evident on the side of the Pelican.

*In [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], the model of ''Echo 419'' (With "E419" written clearly on the sides of the ship) is used for nearly all of the Pelicans in the game, with the exception of the "Crashed Pelican" model for ''[[Victor 933]]'', (With "V933" on the sides of the ship) seen in the level ''343 Guilty Spark'' and ''The Silent Cartographer'', while doubling as the Crashed ''[[Bravo 022]]''.
