Flight attendants on board a flight collectively form a cabin crew, as distinguished from pilots and engineers in the cockpit.

This brought Wernher von Braun and the German Operation Paperclip scientists and engineers to Huntsville, forming the foundation to what eventual became the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center.

Goddard Space Flight Center has a workforce of over 3, 000 civil servant employees, 60 % of which are engineers and scientists.

Flight engineers work in three types of aircraft: fixed-wing ( airplanes ), rotary wing ( helicopters ), and space flight ( ISS ).

Since 2001, engineers at NASA Wallops Flight Facility have been developing new range technologies, systems and approaches to improve the cost and responsiveness of launch and flight test activities, within the constraints of available funding and program schedules.

The Flight is commanded by a Squadron Leader and consists of approximately 20 aircrew, 30 engineers and 8 support staff.

In some commercial airlines, Flight Officer Badges are issued to flight engineers of larger aircraft, such as the Boeing 747.

Several aircraft and a mix of aircrew, engineers and support personnel from 28 ( AC ) Squadron and RAF Benson, deployed using the historic No. 1419 Flight RAF to replace the Chinook's of No. 1310 Flight RAF at Basrah Air Station, Iraq.

The work was performed by the McDonnell Douglas Corporation under contract with the United States Air Force in conjunction with engineers at the Air Force Flight Dynamics Laboratory in Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.

However, the Officer Aircrew Badge is less often awarded ( usually to Airborne Surveillance Officers ( ASO ), Flight test engineers ( FTE ), and a few communications, weather, and intelligence officers, depending on assignment ).

Two of these aircraft are permanently detached to Naval Flying Standards Flight ( Fixed Wing ) at RNAS Yeovilton where they are flown by RN pilots, but maintained by Serco engineers.

The graphite composite boom that provides the structural connection between the shoulder and the elbow joint and the similar boom that connects the elbow to the wrist were produced by General Dynamics in the U. S. Dilworth, Secord, Meagher and Associates Ltd. in Toronto was contracted to produce the Engineering model end effector then SPAR evolved the design and produced the Qualification and Flight units.

Two further books were based on field work with workers: No-Collar: The Humane Workplace and Its Hidden Costs, about employees in Internet companies during the New Economy boom and bust, and Fast Boat to China: Corporate Flight and the Consequences of Free Trade, about skilled Chinese employees of foreign firms in Shanghai and other Yangtze Delta cities.

Flight surgeons are medical doctors, either MDs or DOs, who are primarily responsible for the medical evaluation, certification and treatment of military aviation personnel — e. g., pilots, Naval Flight Officers, navigators / Combat Systems Officers, astronauts, air traffic controllers, UAV operators and other aircrew members, both officer and enlisted.

Flight departments are traditionally corporate owned operators who manage the aircraft of a specific company.

Fixed-base operators ( FBO ) Atlantic Aviation and Signature Flight Support operate separate terminals from the main commercial terminal that are used primarily for general aviation and charter service.

There are two fixed based operators on the field, Atlantic Aviation and Signature Flight Support, as well as three flight schools, Above All Aviation, Red Baron Aviation, and Spitfire Aviation.

BBXRT was directed from outset by ground-based operators at Goddard Space Flight Center and was not affected.

However, despite increasing numbers of aircraft operators utilising technological developments including Datalink communications, Future Air Navigation Systems and forwarding waypoint position reports via Automatic Dependent Surveillance ( ADS-C & ADS-B ), or Flight Management Computer, aircraft continue to be required to carry HF radio as a primary means of communication within oceanic airspace.

In April of that year, Rear Admiral Ralph Davison personally selected Lieutenant Commander Roy Marlin " Butch " Voris, a World War II fighter ace, to assemble and train a flight demonstration team, naming him Officer-in-Charge and Flight Leader.

Flight Simulation Training Devices ( FSTD ) are used to train pilots on the ground.

Flight simulation is used extensively in the aviation industry to train pilots and other flight crew for both civil and military aircraft.

Rather than requiring Munson to take a two week safety class in Kansas, Flight Safety assigned a " traveling instructor " to go on the road with him, and train him between ballgames.

No. 1321 Bomber ( Defence ) Training Flight RAF was first formed at RAF Bottesford on 1 September 1944 as a fighter affiliation unit to train bomber crews from No. 5 Group Bomber Command how to defend their aircraft.

Superman: Ultimate Flight at Six Flags Great America train transitioning from loading position to flying position.

In March the former No 106 " C " Flight metamorphosised into No 25 OTU, initially continuing to train with Hampdens and Ansons.

At the present, Oct 2011, the Chipmunk is in service with the RAF Battle of Britain Memorial Flight and RN Historic Flight, it is used to train pilots to fly ' taildraggers ' as a pre-requisite to flying the flight's Supermarine Spitfires and Hawker Hurricanes.

The Flight used six Sikorsky R-6A Hoverfly 2 ( an improved version of the Hoverfly I ) helicopters, and Auster AOP. 6 aircraft to train British Army and Royal Air Forcepilots and carry out operational trials.

There, the Flight member Puck used Nemesis's sword to fatally wound her father, who was then knocked in front of an oncoming subway train and apparently killed.

Department H would later help him overcome his psychological problems and cure his mental illness, train him in unarmed combat, and place him as a special operative of the Canadian government assigned to Alpha Flight under the codename Weapon Omega.

When Continental Airlines night-coach Flight 54 took off at 11:30 one night last week, there was no reason to think it would take any longer.

Although the facilities at the range are managed by the 99th Air Base Wing at Nellis Air Force Base, the Groom facility appears to be run as an adjunct of the Air Materiel Command Air Force Flight Test Center ( AFFTC ) at Edwards Air Force Base in the Mojave Desert, around southwest of Groom, and as such the base is known as Air Force Flight Test Center ( Detachment 3 ).
