Tom Paris literally broke spacetime and did direct action to save a water planet.
Is there any question?

I question the inclusion of Gavin the Botanist as the Lower Decks entry--doesn't Boimler at least man the helm when he's on the bridge, including the season 1 and 3 finales?
(While federation ships have some variation on which front console is main ops vs. helm, the Cerritos' ops is stage left, mostly indicated by Ensign Barnes' occasional presence there.).
Gavin, the pilot, was really only included because I couldn't think of an 8th pilot and I had just gotten done watching Lower Decks. But if I ever repost it I will include Boims for you.
Rutherford probably would have been a good choice for Lower Decks. We know his past self was a champion sublight racer, and his current self beat him in a race piloting the Delta Flyer. He just doesn't get much time behind the helm because he's now an engineer first and foremost
You mean 4? Detmer, Ro, Gavin, and Welsey don't have anything to use against the other 4.
EDIT: Detmer may have something against the other 4.
Tom Paris!
Data on the last episode of PIC pretty much out flew everyone in that fat ass Galaxy Class Enterprise. Driving likes hes in Tokyo Drift 😂
Ro, how is this even a question.
Tom Paris, but I am admittedly going through Voyager right now. Sulu is the other on my list.
Sulu, Travis, Tom Paris, get my vote
