Manned Aircraft
A manned aircraft is a type of airplane or helicopter designed to carry human pilots onboard to operate and navigate the vehicle. Unlike unmanned systems, these aircraft require human control for takeoff, flight, and landing. They range from small private planes to large commercial airliners and military jets. The presence of onboard crew allows for real-time decision-making, navigation adjustments, and handling of emergencies. Manned aircraft play vital roles in transportation, logistics, defense, and emergency response, offering flexibility and human oversight essential for complex or unpredictable flight conditions.
