In Exopolitics, 'Ground Crew' members are people who claim that their soul has an origin on a planet other than Earth.
In aviation, the groundcrew is the support crew supplying the aircraft with fuel and maintenance, as opposed to the aircrew.

- Airframe and powerplant technicians
- Avionics technicians
- Baggage handlers
- Rampers
- Gate agents
- Ticket agents
- Passenger service agents (such as airline lounge employees)
- Flight dispatchers
