Pilot-in-command

The pilot-in-command is the main pilot responsible for the operation and safety of an aircraft during a flight. This person makes key decisions, oversees procedures, and ensures the aircraft is operated according to regulations. They have the final authority on matters related to the flight and coordinate with crew members and air traffic control. Think of the pilot-in-command as the captain of a ship, responsible for navigating, managing the crew, and ensuring a safe journey from departure to arrival. Their role is vital in maintaining safety and smooth operation throughout the flight.
