Airline pilot
Description
Airline pilots transport passengers and cargo in the air, generally following set routes and schedules. The security of passengers and the crew is the most important part of the job. For this reason, very strict operating regulations and legislation are in place, which must be observed to the letter. On the other hand, air transport is also a service, and as such pilots must also take into account economic factors and the issue of punctuality in their role. Generally speaking, two pilots are required to fly a plane. The captain and the first officer perform the same tasks, but the captain has the command and overall responsibility for the flight.
