Placing circuitry between pilot and aircraft can enhance safety.

For example, the control system can try to prevent a stall, or it can stop the pilot from over stressing the airframe.

Large diesels can run with air mixed with gases and a pilot diesel fuel ignition injection.

Despite the protection offered by flight in controlled airspace under IFR, the ultimate responsibility for the safety of the aircraft rests with the pilot in command, who can refuse clearances.

Such aircraft can land in fog at airports equipped with radar-assisted ground-controlled approach systems in which the plane's flight is observed on radar screens while operators radio landing directions to the pilot.

The simulated environment can be similar to the real world in order to create a lifelike experience — for example, in simulations for pilot or combat training — or it can differ significantly from reality, such as in VR games.

In the United States, a pilot operating VFR outside of class B airspace can request " VFR flight following " from ATC.

In the United Kingdom, a pilot can request for " Deconfliction Service ", which is similar to flight following.

Balloons drift with the wind, though normally the pilot can control the altitude either by heating the air or by releasing ballast, giving some directional control ( since the wind direction changes with altitude ).

While the pilot does most of the steering, the crew can also lean into curves to aid in steering the sled, and, by pulling the sled's brake lever, the brakeman stops the sled after crossing the finish.

The pilot can pitch the plane down by pushing on the yoke or stick, and pitch the plane up by pulling on it.

Some small planes use controls that can be moved from one position to another, such as a single yoke that can be swung into position in front of either the left-seat pilot or the right-seat pilot ( e. g., Beechcraft Bonanza ).

Planes that require more than one pilot usually have controls and displays intended to suit each pilot position, but still with sufficient duplication so that any of the pilots can fly the plane alone in an emergency.

The unduplicated controls that are required for flight are positioned so that they can be reached by either pilot, but they are often designed to be more convenient to the pilot who manipulates them under normal conditions.

This innovative pilot uses open-source components, complies with FISMA and can scale to Government-sized demands while being extremely energy efficient.

A pilot can also retain his or her spatial orientation by referring to the horizon.

Captain Heard gave orders for the ship to be anchored in the Bay of Bengal until he could obtain the services of a reputable pilot to steer her through the shallow waters.

He had wanted to be a commercial pilot for the Saudi national airline but was rejected when he applied to the civil aviation school in Jeddah in 1999.

Of course, a loss of radio communications may also be the cause for a lack of response, in which case a pilot would usually squawk 7600 anyway.

A skilled pilot will be able to climb vertically, perform very tight turns, tumble his aircraft end-over-end and perform manoeuvres during loops.

Due to the flight's routine delay, the pilot and crew were notified of the previous hijackings and were told to be on the alert, though within two minutes Jarrah had stormed the cockpit leaving the pilots dead or injured.

From the documentation compiled by the Civil Aeronautics Board investigation, a possible key to the plane's disappearance was found, but barely touched upon by the Triangle writers: the plane's batteries were inspected and found to be low on charge, but ordered back into the plane without a recharge by the pilot while in San Juan.

Although he initially declined the part of Dr. David Banner in The Incredible Hulk because of its comic book origins, on reading Kenneth Johnson's script for the pilot episode, he was persuaded to change his mind ( and agreed to remain involved with the series for as long as Johnson was to be involved ).

The EAF ( planes and pilot training ) is considered to be the strongest in Africa and one of the strongest in the Middle East.

By contrast, the Gemini capsule's avionics were designed so the cabin could be exposed to the vacuum of space when one of two large hatches was opened, so no airlock was required, and both the spacewalking astronaut and his companion command pilot were in vacuum during the EVA.

She will be co-starring in ' Essence ', the pilot for Blue Hours ' revival of the classic radio anthology " Suspense ", as well as in other upcoming productions.

This successful initiation of a chain-reacting pile was important not only for its help in assessing the properties of fission — needed for understanding the internal workings of an atomic bomb — but also because it would serve as a pilot plant for the massive reactors which would be created in Hanford, Washington, which would then be used to produce the plutonium needed for the bombs used at the Trinity site and Nagasaki.

Gun breeches were directly in front of the pilot with obvious implications in case of accidents, but jams could be cleared in flight, while aiming was simplified.

Fighter armament eventually began to be mounted inside the wings, outside the arc of the propeller, though most designs retained two synchronized machine-guns directly ahead of the pilot where they were more accurate ( that being the strongest part of the structure ).

The pilot is ensconced in a harness suspended from the airframe, and exercises control by shifting body weight in opposition to a control frame, but other devices, including modern aircraft flight control systems, may be used.

In June 2011, Clarence House announced that Prince Harry, on completion of his training conversion course to use Apache helicopters in the war arena, would be available for deployment, including in current operations in Afghanistan, in his role as an Apache helicopter pilot.

In the same month, it was reported that Prince Harry was said to be a natural pilot who was reportedly top of his class in the extensive training he had undertaken at the Naval Air Facility, El Centro, California.

The USA had lost the first round of the space race to the Soviets ; however, the FAI rules in 1961 required that a pilot must land safely with the spacecraft for the flight to be considered an official spaceflight.

Bismarck was discarded (" dropping the pilot " in the words of the famous Punch cartoon ), promoted to the rank of " Colonel-General with the Dignity of Field Marshal " ( so-called because the German Army did not appoint full Field Marshals in peacetime ) and given a new title, Duke of Lauenburg, which he joked would be useful when travelling incognito.

If the rotor disk is to be tilted forward ( to gain forward velocity ), its rotation requires that the downward net force on the blade be applied roughly 90 degrees ( depending on blade configuration ) before, or when the blade is to one side of the pilot and rotating forward.

The system is seen as a major design feature in the reduction of pilot workload, and even allows the pilot to assign targets to himself with two simple voice commands or to any of his wingmen with only five commands.

A hermit on the mainland had seen the approaching ship and had come to meet it with a pilot and the pilot's boy in a boat.

Hiller volunteers to be the pilot, since he is the only person to have seen them in action and survive, giving him unique knowledge of the ship's capabilities, and David decides he must go along to upload the virus.

The aircraft seen flying in the scene is a Naval Aircraft Factory N3N Canary, a World War II Navy pilot trainer sometimes converted for cropdusting.

They reduce the force needed by the pilot to deflect the aileron and are often seen on aerobatic aircraft.

Within days of the Newsweek report, a number of local and national religious organizations began to quickly mobilize against Soap, despite the fact that they also had not seen the pilot.

Variometers are strictly optional for R / C glider use — a skilled pilot can generally determine if their plane is going up or down via visual cues alone, and so the use of a variometer is often seen as a ` crutch ', as a replacement for skill, and many pilots prefer not to use them at all, as the tone can be distracting, and the ( usually small ) amount of weight added to the plane does affect performance.

The rocket car seen in the pilot episode was built by special effects coordinator Kam Cooney and was a working vehicle with an internal combustion engine and throttle controls.
