Am I in helicopter or on helicopter?
Am I in helicopter or on helicopter? So, in a helicopter is correct. We generally say 'in' for small, enclosed modes of transportation where we can't get up and walk around (cars, rowboats, small airplanes). We say 'on' for large, multi-passenger modes of transportation where we can stand up and walk around (buses, ships, large airplanes, trains).
Do you call a helicopter pilot captain?
The pilot in command (PIC) of an aircraft is the person aboard an aircraft who is ultimately responsible for its operation and safety during flight. This would be the captain in a typical two- or three-pilot aircrew, or pilot if there is only one certificated and qualified pilot at the controls of an aircraft.
