A pilot is generally someone who takes control of an airplane either by operating its flight controls or flying it. In aviation, pilots are required to have extensive flying experience and training before they can apply for pilot licence. The majority of airline pilots start out by becoming flight attendants. After a few years, most become first officers and are allowed to take their first solo flight.

Some airline pilots have enough knowledge about the aviation industry that they are able to start their own business, becoming corporate pilots. This enables them to continue learning while earning a living, and allows them to expand their flying hours to meet demand. There are various airlines that have their own fleet of planes, and some of these have become very successful. As a corporate pilot, you need to have your own private and corporate flight if you want to run a successful business. To start a business, you must first gain enough knowledge from the professionals, and the most important thing to gain from the experience is problem-solving skills.

The primary role of a pilot is to control the movement of an airplane or vehicle. Air traffic control (ATC) is the division of the airline industry that manages the safe operation of aircraft in controlled environments, mainly through the use of air traffic controllers (ATC). Other than that role, the pilot is responsible for maintaining safe pilot-engineer co-ordination and coordination between the flight crew, maintenance department and the weather conditions. Pilots need to know basic aspects of aviation such as navigation, emergency situations, flying regulations, weather conditions and night flying.

The most important thing that a pilot must be able to do is to successfully execute basic flight routes and landing procedures. They must be efficient, quick and accurate in their calculations as well as in their interaction with other crew members and passengers on board an aircraft. They are also expected to be physically fit and able to perform various emergency operations while in the air. Pilots must be committed and dedicated to their profession, and must maintain the highest standards of personal hygiene and physical appearance.

All pilots work for different airline companies and fly different types of aircraft. Their main job is to keep passengers and crew safe during flight. Pilots are responsible for handling emergency situations that may arise during the flight, and should be aware of what are emergency and what are standard emergency procedures. They decide where the plane will go and what route it should take to reach its destination. If the plane ever encounters any kind of emergency situation, the flight crew must immediately respond by communicating with the passengers and the pilots to give them instructions and emergency numbers.

A pilot must be trained to read flight plans and have experience of flying large aircraft such as Boeings and transports. He must also have an excellent command over the terminology used by the passengers and the pilots, as well as complete knowledge of all aircraft systems and components. A successful pilot is one who can follow his flight plans without deviating from them, and he must have a good safety record with no major accidents or engine faults in his aviation career. To become a successful pilot a person needs to pass a thorough written test, train for pilot license, and complete any additional training required according to the regulations.
