Yes, sir.
I hear this as "there's another on the loose! They're right behind me!"
We've analyzed their attack, sir, and there is a danger. Shall I have your ship standing by?
EVACUATE?! in our moment of triumph???

I think you over-estimste their chawnces.

I copy Red Leader. Moving to you.
Red Leader, this is Base One. Keep half your group out of reach for the next run.
I copy Base One. Luke, take Red Two and Three hold up here and wait for maiiyyyy signal to start your run.
"Luke... Take Red 2 an 3. Hold up here and wait for my signal to start you run..."
"we should be able to see it by now"
"Keep your eyes open for those fighters....."
Flying point.Red boys(?) This is Red leader..
Rendezvous at mark 6.1...

No sign of any -- wait! Coming in at Point three-five!
I see them!
I'm in range. Target's coming up. Just hold 'em off for a few seconds.
Close up formation.

(I always thought he pronounced that word really weird)
Allllmooost theeeere.

You'd better let 'em loose! They're right behind me!
Allllmooooost theeeeere.

Aaaaargh!!
>KAPLOOM!!!<

>Shloomf!<
It's away!!
(which I used to hear as "Heads away!" It kinda made sense if you thought he was talking about "warheads." what? I was five at the time!)
(incidentally, this is another one of those movie moments where time is totally relative. The Death Star was supposed to be in range in 3 minutes about 15 minutes prior, and Luke's run takes at least 7, not including the time for Red Leader's death, the "Death star is now in range" annuoncement, shots of Tarkin looking pensive, shots of the warroom on Yavin looking tense, AND all the death star gunner guys charging up the main laser. I'm always reminded of the countdown timer in Goldfinger when I see stuff like this.)
It just impacted (?) on the surface.
