Mission- Mobility Aircrew Pilot

MAKING SURE ALL SYSTEMS ARE MISSION READY

• Review tasks, intelligence and weather information to prepare for missions
• Make sure aircraft is preflighted and manned for every mission
• Monitor and operate aircraft and engine systems controls
• Conduct and supervise mission‑specific training
