Yes: An unmanned, aerial vehicle (UAV) is an unpiloted aircraft. UAVs can be remote controlled or fly autonomously based on pre-programmed flight plans or more complex dynamic automation systems. UAVs are currently used in a number of military roles, including reconnaissance and attack (Wikipedia)
But sticktly speak your run of the day Commercial Airliner can't.
Yes. It can take-off on auto pilot. But we have to programme it correctly according to the procedure. All commercial airplanes take-off manually.
When the pilot opens the throttle, the plane starts to move. If pointed down a runway, it can take off.
The captain and copilot pull the yoke back and the aircraft takes off autopilot can't help take off for some reason. Pilot's fly the plane .
Either after take off the pilot turns on auto pilot or he pitches the plane nose up by pullling back on the plane yoke a yoke is used to make the plane go up and dwn
A person can visit the pilot on a plane before the plane takes off. Someone can ask to see the pilot before taking off and they can meet them. Many pilots also welcome the passengers onto the plane, so they can be met that way as well.
Lift is what ultimatly causes the plane to take off. When a plane get up to take off speed, that means the wings are generating enough lift to lift the plane up. The pilot will change the planes angle of attack with the elevators (located on the horizontal stabilizers) to the wind which forces engine thrust to push the plane into the air.
Example from a pilot speaking inside a plane: This is American Airways 3953 we are ready for take off over.
In a cloud, there are no visual references to tell the pilot how the plane is angled. A pilot might accidentally climb so hard that the plane stalls out. Or take off in the wrong direction, or fly into the ground. With instruments, the pilot can keep the plane aligned w/o seeing outside the cockpit.
you pilot a plane
Wind strength or wind speed is important to a pilot because it effect the pilot's ability control the plane while in flight, upon take off, upon final approach and upon landing.
They would be escorted from the plane. An airplane pilot has the same powers as a ship's captain. On the plane what he says goes. Disobey the pilot and you will be put off of the airplane.
To fly a plane is the same as to pilot a plane.
