Oh, comming up with Theories is fun. I think I have discovered something.
Okay, firstly, we all know about the flashes in MCs visor. For those who don't, around 1:03 of the trailer, in the top left corner of MCs visor there are 3 flashes and then Chief nods. Its been speculated that these are acknoledgement lights. The acknoldedgement lights are what the Spartan team used to... well... acknoledge orders in the books. Now, after that, there are another couple flashes as Banshees appear over on the right side of Cheif, he turns to see the Banshees after the flashes. It is also speculated that someone let him know of the banshees.
Now, its also speculated that there are more spartans in Halo 3.
Now, also note that the Banshees dont have any pilots in the trailer.
Here is my theory. I think that the Banshees that fly over Cheif are piloted by the other spartans, Fred, Will and Linda. Kelly no because she is not fighitng ready, and has been taken by Dr. Halsey. The Cheif got 3 acknoledgement flashes (Linda, Will and Fred) and then he nodded. He got another couple flashes around 1:11, and then 3 Banshees flew very, low to the ground behind him on his right. This would also explain why the Banshees didn't attack him when they were so very, very near to him. It also would explain why we don't see the pilots, Bungie may not have wanted to show us that there are indeed more Spartans in Halo 3 yet.
Just a thought. Thoughts?
