Summary
A pilot directly controlled the operation of a vehicle while located within the same craft. A pilot was often assisted by a copilot, navigator, astromech droid, weapons officer, or other crew members. The term "pilot" was applied across vehicles used on land or in water, air, and/or space.
In smaller spacecraft, the title pilot and captain were interchangeable, but on larger vessels, the pilots were rarely the commanders of the vessels.
