Pilot
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
- "He was the best starpilot in the galaxy..."
- ―Obi-Wan Kenobi, discussing Anakin Skywalker[src]
A pilot, sometimes called a flyboy, directly controlled the operation of a vehicle while located within the same craft. A pilot was often assisted by a copilot, navigator, weapons officer, or other crew members.
The term "pilot" was applied across vehicles used on land or in water, air, and/or space.
The military designation for a pilot was PL-1. Whether this applied to all pilots or only starfighter pilots is unknown.
On smaller ships, the word pilot and captain were interchangeable, but on larger vessels, the pilot or pilots were not always the commanders of the vessels.
