Sounds good to me. I want Kyne to be in between a newbie pilot and an Ace. Truth be told I am wanting to take him into the Ace Pilot PrC.
Seems like a good thing to aim for with him. This does compel me to mention that since we do have a diverse group, skill-set wise, there definitely will be chances for everyone to shine in their own thing. Just feel that deserves a mention as sometimes things like pilots or mechanics, etc can get lost in the fold.

Can't see that hurting. But I do expect, one way or another, you guys will end up with access to some kind of ship. Be it issued by the Alliance, bought, or whatever, it'll obviously be pretty helpful to have something as things get moving.

Seems fine to me. Definitely liking how this group is coming together. Going to have some...interesting personality types here, it seems.
Only thing about the Independence is that its technically the flagship of the Alliance until just prior to the Battle of Endor...so its not exactly the safest place. But its a minor thing.
Though from the background, I'm kind of at a loss to where you're going with the character, stat-wise. Background is good but it doesn't really do much of implying where the character fits in with the group so I can't really say much else on that.
I was thinking about scout, personally, mainly because of her background study in xenoanthropology and a bit of work in the subject for the Alliance previously.
You know this isn't an excessively powergamed group when you get three proposed PCs trained in Knowledge(social sciences), two of them with Skill Focus there. Admittedly, Istara's background is economics (so I might move her skill focus to beuaracracy just to avoid redundancy), Lia's is xenoanthropology, and Kay's is sociology/criminology, but still...
If we are mentioning which Prestige Classes we are aiming for, Kay is heading towards Gunslinger and Officer.
Sounds good to me.
Just remember, as it seems to have been a bit missed or glossed over somewhat, that this first adventure is going to be short, with some pretty simple goals that shouldn't take long to accomplish. After which, we'll likely jump ahead a few months and all the PCs will likely get one or two more levels before we get into the next stuff.

I like seeing a group of smart people! Even with all the Knowledge flying around, the group still seems capable enough in a fight. And we still haven't seen all the stats just yet.

Well, after re-reading the knowledge skill categorizations in the core rulebook, I decided to slide her specialization over to bureacracy (which seems like a better fit for her economics/high finance background), and switch social sciences to physical sciences (because math falls in there).
She's not all that good in a fight (no combat skills or feats beyond what she gets for free, although she has a modified blaster), but she should be okay as long as she stays behind cover...

The rules for that are published in the starship book. There are no masterwork items, but there are customized items.
The cost to buy a customized item is:
Item Cost + 1/10(Item Cost)
or
Item Cost + 1000
whichever is higher
any item can only have one customization.
On weapons the three availible options are:
+1 Accuracy
+2 Damage
Autofire/Single Fire adjustment giving a weapon with only 1 mode the ability to toggle both modes

Is it possible to purchase items that are like masterwork (+1 to hit) or something else like that. I have not seen this in the rules anywhere.
Is it also possible to have a outlaw-tech or whoever to have 'modified' our equipment?
I have seen in a game a rifle with Accuracy +1
Anyone with the tech specialist feat (in Starships of the Galaxy, or the web enhancement ) can make modified equipment. Since Istara has the Tech Specialist feat, I'm assuming she can make modified items for herself at cost. The market value of a modified item is base price + double the cost of the modifications.
Garret is done. All I need are HP's and I will be ready.
I made up names for the custom Armor and Rifle.
I added Accuracy (+1 to hit) to the Rifle for +1000cr
I added Mastercraft (+1 Perception) to the armor +100cr
I am pretty sure that the Perception thing also an option from the Star Wars Ships book.
I also paid for licenses. I probably do not need to, but I did anyhow.
I have a bit of money left over and I do not know what else to buy without carrying too much stuff.

Kyne was raised as part of the rebellion. His father was a pilot, his mother basically raised him by herself. He saw his father every once in a while, but rarely left the safety of the base until the Deathstar made it's fateful trip to Yavin.
He had been flying since he was just a boy, and had become rather accomplished at the art. He had joined the Green Squadron, just in time to help defend against the Imperial Starfighters. Dumb luck or skill allowed Kyne to survive, even though most of his squadron had perished in the battle. He had only managed two kills, but that seemed enough to gain the attention of his superiors.
The call came to abandon the base, hardly a shock considering what had just happened. He rushed home to find that his mother was gone. A note was on the door saying she knew Kyne would be okay with the squadron and had left for the shuttle. He grabbed what he could and left, running back to his fighter.

I gave the wrong price for the modification. The Cost to Modify is Item + 1000cr. The cost to buy a customized item is Item Cost + 2000cr
Modification Prices
OK, I payed for full market price for the modd'ed armor and weapon.
Since I am a richboy, I must have the best, and that, with licensing, spends every last credit I have.
Assuming I have done the math correctly this is perfect. =)
I originally was going to assume that I had someone mod them afterwards while I was in rebellion or other training, but I think this works out well.
Classes
I am also headed for Elite Trooper, I would have preferred a sniper-like prestige class, but there are not so many choices for prestige classes. My full planned-out 20 level build can be found at the bottom of my character sheet. I will be doing a full 7 levels levels of Soldier and 3 levels of Scout, then finishing with all 10 levels of Elite Trooper.

Only thing about the background is that Biggs(Red 3) wasn't much older than Luke, early 20s at most, and couldn't really have had a kid anywhere near old enough to fight. Honestly, pretty much every single pilot up in the air at Yavin were too young, other than Red Leader. There ARE a few that aren't known...I believe Red 11 and 12 are still 'open' spots in the squadron roster without having names attached to whoever they were.

And I did up my background, I hope it's ok!
Yeah, not much that can be done about a medic-specific class at this point. Nor any real talent tree. But methinks it'll be fine either way.
Background looks good, by the way.

If you REALLY want me to, I can work on converting the Sharpshooter PrC from the Hero's Guidebook. Its definitely agood sniper PrC, though I'm not sure I'm the best at converting things, I can give it a shot if you'd like. Otherwise, Elite Trooper would still probably do just fine.
So either later today or tomorrow I'll make a character thread and start rolling HP so we can have some finalized stats for most of these characters. My hope is that we can get this moving sometime early next week.
Biggs and Wedge were around 20-21 at the time of Yavin 4. Wedge was 28 when he formed Wraith Squadron roughly 7-8 years later.
The fun part is Biggs, really, as his age depends on where you look. The stuff from the movies, cut scenes and such, have him around 25ish, the oldest of the group...but I believe some of the later books dropped that down to closer to Luke/Wedge and most of the rest of Red Squadron.
Heh, reminds me of the headache it can be to figure out how old Luke is supposed to be. Though I believe that one's finally been settled after far too many years.

Its not a bad thing to have money on hand, in fact its kinda assumed. Kay has 14,000 credits and I may jiggle that a bit to give her the wealthy talent to add another 24,000 credits.
