To orient themselves in flight, pilots either:
1. Use visual cues outside the cockpit to keep the airplane stable and on track
or
2. (more used) use instruments inside the cockpit that act as visual cues (attitude indicator, speed indicator, altimeter, and GPS)
Pilots and sailors first instrument used in flying and sailing was a compass so they could orient themselves in what direction they've been heading and should head based on time and speed.
Airline pilots identify themselves in English, the international language of aviation.
Yes they use them on every flight -awesome dude
A METAR is a format of weather reporting information and is used by pilots to fulfill part of their pre flight weather briefing. It is also used by meteorologists who use aggregated METAR information to assist in weather forecasting.
No... pilots will not allow the use of any unessecary electronic devices during flight as it will interfere with the flight instruments
Flight deck is a section in some airplanes that pilots, copilots and engineers use.
Pilots use instruments such as altimeters, airspeed indicators, and attitude indicators to measure altitude, airspeed, and aircraft orientation. These instruments help pilots navigate safely through airspace and maintain control of the aircraft during flight.
Geography assists pilots by providing information on terrain, weather patterns, and navigation points. Pilots use geographical features like mountains, rivers, and coastlines as visual references to help them navigate and stay clear of obstacles. Understanding geographic locations also helps pilots plan efficient flight routes and make informed decisions during flight.
Airline pilots use great circle routes to a plot airline flight paths because they are often the shortest distance between take off and destination. Great circle routes take into account the curvature of the Earth.

Carrying a checklist is not legally mandatory for pilots, but it is highly recommended and considered best practice. Checklists enhance safety by ensuring that critical pre-flight, in-flight, and post-flight procedures are followed systematically. Many aviation authorities and airlines require their pilots to use checklists to comply with safety regulations and standard operating procedures. Ultimately, using a checklist helps reduce the risk of errors and improves overall flight safety.
They use their claws and teeth. They also use camoflage and flight to defend themselves.
