What does a pilot do to fly the aircraft?

originally, the pilot would maneuver a "stick", which is a lot like a joystick, to pull cables connected to the rudder and elevator (the horizontal part of the tail) to control yaw and pitch, respectively. two foot pedals do the same for the control surfaces on the wing, which control roll. mechanical wires have now been replaced with electronic systems and servo motors, but they still operate the same things. now, with autopilot, a computer can fly the plane on it's own, and, under ideal circumstances with no problems, the pilot doesen't have to do anything at all. the pilot remains in case there is a problem, in which case human intellect is far superior to a computer in dealing with it.


What are tabs on an airplane?

Trim tabs are small control surfaces which enable the pilot to fine-tune the pitch, roll, or yaw of the aircraft to maintain a specific configuration without the pilot having to constantly exert force on the controls. A pilot might use the elevator trim tab to put the aircraft in a nose-high climbing configuration without having to keep constant pressure on the yoke. A pilot would use aileron trim to counteract a natural tendency to roll caused by the aircraft being out of balance. A pilot would use rudder trim to counteract a natural tendency to yaw left or right due to engine loss, or low airspeed p-factor.
