Members of the Poku Saeruo Degonjo who pilot most Clan starships and atmospheric vessels hold this occupation.

The occupation of Fighter Pilot is distinct from the occupation of Pilot. Pilots are trained to serve as one part of a crew of a larger vessel, and their exclusive responsibility is the piloting of that ship. A Fighter Pilot must be familiar with all of the systems of their small craft, and they train exclusively with that ship; a Pilot may serve on a number of different vessels of varying size and configuration. Pilots can become Fighter Pilots, and vice versa; they simply change their occupation and can experience a different kind of flying.
