The perfect crew
Connor Mc.:
Captain: Qui Gon Ginn from Starwars episode 1
Engineer: Dave Mustane from Megadeth (he is always given the short stick, so he will work twice as hard to prove his worth)
Gunner: Anderson Cooper (he has a good eye for detail)
Aux: Michelle Obama (she could dress the crew)

Lord Dick Tim:
Hmm... choices choices.
Captain: Ahab
Engineer: Perth-Ships blacksmith and carpenter.
Gunner: Queequeg- That there be a whale's eye.
Auxiliary: Fedallah- The figure that now stood by its bows was tall and swart, with one white tooth evilly protruding from its steel-like lips. A rumpled Chinese jacket of black cotton funereally invested him, with wide black trowsers of the same dark stuff. But strangely crowning this ebonness was a glistening white pleated turban, the living hair braided and coiled round and round upon his head.
Linen:
Captain: Jeff "Joker" Moreau (Mass Effect)
Engineer: Kaylee Frye (Firefly)
Gunner: Cameron Phillips T-900 series Terminator (Sarah Connor Chronicles)
Gungineer: Garrus Vakarian (Mass Effect)
For reasons.

--- Quote from: HamsterIV on April 10, 2013, 11:31:47 am ---Captain: Ender Wiggin (Ender's Game) - Tactical genius who can forge a winning team out of anybody
Engineer: Kaylee (Firefly) - She can keep the old girl in the air no matter what falls off
Gunner: Hlaine 'Mad' Larkin (Gaunt's Ghosts 40k) - Noted for blind fire headshots on heavy weapon crews behind soft cover
Auxiliary: Tony Stark (Marvel Comics) - Decent shot capable of jury rigging anything into a weapon.

Good Lord, that is a damn fine crew. All you gotta do is remember, the enemy's gate is down. My only change would be from Kaylee to a Huragok, from the Halo series. These guys can fix machines on a molecular level in seconds, able to disassemble and reassemble a car within seconds, usually resulting in a much efficient remodel. Also, they can fly, so they can access areas other engies simply can't.

Never played the Halo series, so I don't know these Huragok. Still I would rather listen to Kaylee give me a damage report.
Also imagine the kind of conversations Kaylee and Stark would have. Kaylee has more experience fixing things under duress which is why I want her for my primary engineer. Stark is better at optimizing weapons and has no qualms about using said weapons on other people (where as Kaylee does). That is why he is my gungineer.
Mad Larkin just doesn't miss and he seems to ignore cover. This is the type of guy who could shoot out the turning engines on a squid through cloud cover at 2000 meters by just examining the exhaust trail.
Ender Wiggin has the three attributes of a good captain: piloting skill, tactics, and leadership. I am not 100% sure about piloting skill but I am sure his tactics and leadership will make up for it. Also there is no character in fiction who has shown a better grasp of a 3 dimensional battle field than Ender. With the possible exception of John Geary (Lost fleet series). But John Geary entered his series with the status close to that of a living god, and spent the rest of the series dealing with people who were trying to usurp his position. Ender started his series as the kid nobody wanted, and ended up trusted with the fate of humanity and with a following of friends so loyal they would "follow him out an airlock without a suit" if he needed them to. Now that is leadership.
