I can take an extra action, but seeing as I don't want to brig anyone at the moment and I'm running low on cards, there's nothing for me to do with it.

The Chief can only take an extra action when he repairs on his own turn.

Hi there!
I'm at my folks' house and I can check in periodically throughout the day.

We're up to President Zarek's Crisis. Since this is the card I left on top with my Recon, I'll save omnis the trouble and post it now. Zarek's Crisis is:
The Olympic Carrier
Skill Check (11 YGR)
We start off with interrupts, IC and/or SR. This is a pretty high number and Destiny could easily go either way, so I play an IC-3; pass on SR.
Chief Tyrol's the only other player to draw Blue. Chief, once you pass or play on an SR (and our mod posts Destiny), we're good to go.

For those watching at home, IC is Investigative Committee, which means everyone plays into the skill check face up, and SR is Scientific Research, which would mean blue cards count as positive for the skill check.

I only have 3 cards, but I can help with this check if necessary. Is there anything specific we need to do on my turn that I might want to save them for (more repairs, etc.)?

My vote is for saving the Armoury until the Chief's turn. We won't need it before then, and he gets a free action to do it on his turn.
While we're not under attack, we can use the time to build up resources and get defences in place. Some options:
1. XO the President to draw more Quorum Cards.
2. XO me to work the Press Room for more Politics.
3. Move to Command and launch a couple of vipers. If you do that, Apollo can jump in one of the vipers and take a bonus action. If he has an XO or a Launch Scout, then this could work out well.

I'm all for scouting but I don't see why we need vipers launched if we're not currently under attack.

It's a precaution for if we do come under attack. Attack cards typically don't launch more than two vipers; there's one at least that doesn't launch any. If we already have some birds in the air, it gives us some extra confidence.
