Sky Pilot...

[H2Yo]

Someone should make a map purely for dog fighting. Have two islands with runways that have 10 planes each then battle it out in the skies with no AA guns!!!

Sometimes people that drive boats are called pilots.

Um what world do you live in and would you mind joining ours? People that drive boats are called captains. The action of driving a boat can sometimes, if mistakenly, be referred to as piloting.

Would you mind joining a language school and start teaching English and save us some trouble?

what about when a cargo or cruise ship comes into some ports, a PILOT comes out to maneuver the ship into dock?

[sarcasm] Oh gee and what about the PILOT light on my stove?? [/sarcasm]

Stop the petty argument. It has NOTHING to do with the topic. You all know what he meant when he said pilots. Some of you are just itching to jump on someones post and nitpick the heck out of it. It's really immature.

Sounds like a fun map

I know I'd play it

17. Where research is conducted in advance of the actual study to assess the logistics of the study The aim is to highlight any areas of weakness which can then be eradicated in the actual study .
18. Release strategy in which a module is put into production in a limited and very controlled environment; usually involves people, hardware, and software working together with the express intent of using the pilot period to learn what works and what does not work A pilot is usually run for a specific period of time; the results are documented and used as input to finalize the module before a larger deployment . . 1 n The person in control of an aircraft 2 The person who steers a ship; helmsman 3 Port official responsible for guiding ships into and out of the harbor 4 v To control a plane in flight or a ship in water 5 n See pilot program .
