3 people on the ship read ancient. Eli, Rush and the other guy who was on the shuttle. Eli's knowledge was basic (same as the other dude) but it's not inconceivable that they haven't picked more up.
I too don't see the "refueling" as a cheat. The ancients knew this ship would be out there for thousands of years (I believe 100K+). It would make sense to have a smallish power supply and have to refuel along the way, as needed. Do remember that this ship is chasing ANOTHER ship which is seeding planets with stargates. They planned it to be out there (both of them) for eons. Also, it would make sense that the pilot of the shuttle (tired, can't think of names) would have a general idea of how to fly it. It's fair to say he's had training of some sort in shuttle technology and since both are ancient design, it stands to reason he could figure out how to fly it. Oh, and can you really dis the physics of the landing?
