Our teacher, Mrs. Hetherington, has a brother named Pete who is a pilot. He is a First Officer for US Airways. Some people call him Pete the Pilot. She invited him to talk to our class about his job. He came to visit us at Beall.
Pilots are community helpers who provide a service.
They transport people to other places. Pete the Pilot told us that there are two pilots who fly the airplane. One is the captain and the other person is the co-pilot or first officer. The first officer flys the airplane if the captain gets tired. In the picture below, you can see Pete the Pilot wearing his headphones and holding his flight plans.
