Soarin

Soarin' is one of the male members of The Wonderbolts. He appears in the earlier episodes of the series, and makes his speaking debut in The Best Night Ever, which is also where another Wonderbolt, Spitfire, mentions his name.

Appearances
Soarin' makes his debut as one of the three Wonderbolts in Sonic Rainboom, attending and judging for The Best Young Flyer Competition. He is one of the Wonderbolts that attempts to save Rarity when she plummets after her wings burn, and instead gets knocked unconscious by her panicked kicking, as do the other two Wonderbolts.

"I'll take that big apple pie!"

- Soarin'

Soarin' makes another appearance in The Best Night Ever, where he purchases a pie from Applejack, being her first and only customer for the night, excluding Rarity and Prince Blueblood who got their food on the house. Soarin' is the first Wonderbolt to have his name revealed, when Spitfire talks to him about his pie. Rainbow Dash saves the pie when he accidentally drops it. He is shown right after, happily, if a bit messily, tucking into his treat.

Soarin' appears even earlier in the series in a cameo appearance in The Ticket Master. Rainbow Dash imagined herself impressing the Wonderbolts followed by shaking hooves with Soarin'.
