If a Flying Pirate's jet pack is damaged to the point that it ultimately fail, the Flying Pirate will launch itself towards the attacker in an apparent suicide strike, exploding upon impact.<ref name=Logbook/> The Pirates can easily be defeated with a [[Charge Beam|charged]] [[Plasma Beam (Metroid Prime series)|Plasma Beam]] shot or a charged [[Ice Beam]] shot followed by a Missile. Strangely enough, when frozen, the Flying Pirate's jet pack will keep the organism in the air. Because of their jet packs' high heat signatures, one can easily track down a Flying Pirate with [[Thermal Visor|Thermal technology]].<ref name="Logbook"/> A version of the Flying Pirate that does its work in underwater regions is known as an [[Aqua Pirate]]. Flying Pirates specifically have only appeared in ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]'', but members of the Space Pirate Organization that are almost identical to the unit, called [[Aerotrooper|Aerotroopers]], exist. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*Oddly, the physical stature of Flying Pirates is much more nimble and small than that of a normal Pirate Trooper. | |||
*Although Flying Pirates only appear in ''Prime'', very similar [[Aerotrooper]]s appear in ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes|Echoes]]'' and ''[[Metroid Prime 3: Corruption|Corruption]]''. | |||
