Understanding "Pilot in Command" in the U.S. Air Force
šø Photo: Lieutenant Colonel Napolin's PIC wings resting on officer cap
In the U.S. Air Force, the term Pilot in Command (PIC) carries immense responsibility. The PIC is the designated aviator who holds final authority and accountability for the operation and safety of the aircraft during a flight. Whether it's a solo mission or part of a larger crew, the PIC is in charge of all major decisionsāfrom navigating the skies to responding to emergencies. This role is crucial in military operations where precision, leadership, and split-second decisions can determine mission success.

My grandfather was in the Air Force. You can see his ranks, patches and medals in this photo. He loved flying. He flew until 90 years old and then stopped. He passed away in 2016 at 94.
