Aircrew, also called flight crew, are personnel who operate an aircraft while in flight. The composition of a flight's crew depends on the type of aircraft, plus the duration and purpose of the flight.

Flight deck positions
In commercial aviation, the aircrew are called its 'Flight Crew'. Some flight crew position names were originally derived from nautical terms, and also indicated a rank, or command structure similar to that on an ocean-going vessel, quickly allowing for executive decision making during normal operations or emergency situations. Historical flightdeck positions include:
Captain, the pilot designated as the Pilot-In-Command (PIC), and the highest-ranking member or members of a flight crew.
First Officer (FO, also called a co-pilot), another pilot who is not the pilot-in-command, and is normally seated to the right of the captain. (On helicopters, an FO is normally seated to the left of the captain, who occupies the right hand seat).
Second Officer (SO), a person lower in rank to the First Officer, and who typically performs selected duties and also acts as a relief pilot. The rank of Second Officer was traditionally a Flight Engineer, who was often the person who handled the engine controls. In the 21st century second officers on some airlines are pilots who act as "cruise relief" on long haul flights.
The first part of the film concentrates on the personal lives of the air crew, including their problems and relationships. For family reasons, one of the pilots has had to give up a promising career for a much less ambitious one. Despite this, his wife senses that he is not happy, which makes her a conflicted and angry spouse. Though both the parents love their son, it is not enough to prevent them from divorcing. Subsequently, the pilot resumes his career piloting the large passenger planes he had been hankering after. One of his pilot colleagues does not believe in family at all — his flat is full of impressive self-constructed light effects and son et lumière equipment that he uses to impress the parade of women he has one-night stands with.
