How about having the Watchers infiltrated by the Trust, or vice versa? It could even be spun that they infiltrate the Trust thinking it's a front for Immortals or something. Maybe they think Ba'al is immortal because they've seen him die, then see him again later. That would allow the Watchers to learn about the SGC and Atlantis, and Joe could then pass the info on to Our Heroes.
But that brings up why Our Heroes would want in to the SGC or Atlantis. There has to be some sort of McGuffin to make them want to take that risk. Maybe Methos knows of some old "very special thing for Immortals is hidden on Atlantis" myth but didn't think it was a real place until they find out about the SGC et al?
Richie could be the one chosen to go simply because he not only looks the youngest, but because he'd be the most comfortable with modern technology and the like and able to pick up a job in the USAF (not necessarily a pilot) easiest.
They'd also have less tinkering to do with his past, because he has a "real" paper trail in the right time period, though he'd be about 10 years older than what he looks, but he could still get away with that pretty easily.
