pilot's

Belonging to captain

Pilot's is the possessive form of pilot—someone who operates aircraft, ships, or guides vessels through difficult waters.

It indicates something belonging to or associated with a pilot: the pilot's license, the pilot's seat, the pilot's instructions.

In television, a pilot's success determines whether a series gets ordered.
