Four Viper activations would get two civvies home. And those would be C and D, as they are the civvies the 6 Raiders will be after...until we take them away, at which point they will go after A and B. Of course, A and B are the ones we can actually get from immediately launched Vipers anyway, so...those are what we would get.
Are we only suspecting Baltar based on the Delusional Intuition gaffe? Because I am perfectly willing to accept that as the player's mistake. Whereas the Loyalty check put the suspicion on Dee, for me. Yes, he could still be a Cylon and telling the truth about Adama to gain our trust, so it's not a strong case. But I'm just not sure.

Or you could be the Cylon too. Hey, just saying.
I understand the suspicions with sleeper phase, that's why I'm not advocating springing me just yet. I think escorting civvies is our highest priority, especially since Adama is the CAG. We have no pilots. It's our only way of escorting. (Gods, I hope Adama is human!)

I stay put and
Play a CS-5
to Activate Command Twice
I
Launch Viper I
into
Sector 5
with instructions to
escort Civilian Ship Australopithecus home.
Then I
Launch Viper II
into
Sector 5
with instruction to
escort civilian ship Bonobo home.
Then I lean back in my CagMiral chair and smoke a big stogie.

PSST USE YOUR BONUS CAG ACTION.

PSST USE YOUR BONUS CAG ACTION.
Yes! Please! THis!! Maybe move them into sector 4?
BSG (Adama CAG of the moment)
Who should I give the title to? I'm thinking Cally since I (and we know how well this has worked out in the past with P-C) trust that she's human
...pausing just a couple hours for discussion...
BSG (Cally)
Huh? Why would you give up the title? I just meant to use the bonus Viper activation. I mean, I'm happy to take it if you think that's strategically better, but I don't think it helps us right now. Right now we need more Vipers in the air.
BSG (Adama)
My understanding is that I can only take a bonus action without giving up the title if I'm piloting a viper and somehow I rose to the rank of Admiral without ever learning how to fly a viper.
BSG (Cally)
Aaaah, so that's the catch. Got it. Maybe we can, like, toss the title back and forth?
BSG (dee)
Let's get a ruling from BT before we go tossing the title around. It could eat up valuable actions or something.
