First off, let me explain that as a fan, I am merely disecting the Halo 3 trailer, to keep my morale high. Those of you who say that people go too far, discussing theories, and analyzing the trailer, just aren't as into it as us enthusiasts.
I did a frame by frame analysis on the 2 banshees that fly in front of the 'camera'. The first one is simply too dark to see into. The second, has no pilot. I was trying to recognise a foot of some covenant soldier, such as an Elite, or Brute to see exactly who was after the artifact, as we do not yet know if the Covenant civil war has ended (which I doubt). If there was an Elite inside the Banshees, it would show that the Covenant has mended, and that they too want to activate the rings. If it was Brutes, it would either mean that the Covenant is back in order, or that the Elites have joined with the Humans. However, seeing as how Bungie didn't put anybody in the banshees, it's impossible to tell, which was probably their intent.
