Explanation:

The pilot in command (PIC) of an aircraft is the person aboard the 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. The PIC must be legally certificated (or otherwise authorized) to operate the aircraft for the specific flight and flight conditions, but need not be actually manipulating the controls at any given moment. The PIC is the person legally in charge of the aircraft and its flight safety and operation, and would normally be the primary person liable for an infraction of any flight rule.

The Pilot in Command must hold the rank of Captain, and typically sits in the left seat. The second in command can be a First Officer or another Captain, and will occupy the right seat. An exception exists where a Captain is being trained, in which case two Captains will occupy the cockpit, a Training Captain will be the Pilot in Command and will occupy the right seat.

The strict legal definition of PIC may vary slightly from country to country. The International Civil Aviation Organization, a United Nations agency, definition is: "The pilot responsible for the operation and safety of the aircraft during flight time."[1] Flight time for airplanes is defined by the U.S. FAA as "Pilot time that commences when an aircraft moves under its own power for the purpose of flight and ends when the aircraft comes to rest after landing."[2] This would normally include taxiing, which involves the ground operation to and from the runway, as long as the taxiing is carried out with the intention of flying the aircraft.

Hello. You have not shown the excerpt to which the question refers, which prevents me from being able to provide an accurate answer, as well as preventing me from providing evidence of the text. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

tyler wishes to make the reader identify with what is being narrated in the story. For this, she needs the reader to have a strong perception of everything that is happening in the text. This perception must be intense, with the meanings highly developed, stimulating the reader's senses. For this reason, it makes a strong use of imagery, simile and repetition as literary resources that can reinforce the immersion of the reader of the story, making the reader feel that he is experiencing everything that is narrated.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The Key to description is (A) giving the reader enough detail to form a picture in his or her mind.

Explanation:

Description means a spoken or a written representation of a person, event or object. When we describe anything to someone, we describe each and every detail of the thing we are talking about or referring to. It helps the reader or listener to create a picture in his mind about that thing. He would only be glued and interested in what the person is saying. Also, it would only give a clear picture of the thing being described.

What does frank James say was the beginning of the end? What does he mean by the end

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

According to Frank James, the arrival of the whites in America was the beginning of the end.

And by "the end", he meant the end of freedom for the Wampanoag Indians in their own lands.

Explanation:

Frank James was a descendent of the Wampanoag Indians who was asked to give a speech at the state dinner during the 350th-anniversary celebration of the Plymouth Pilgrims' arrival on the land of the Indians. His speech was referred to as the "Suppressed Speech", due to the fact that his planned speech was refused and "suppressed" by the celebration planners.

With his proposed speech scrape, James refused to "recite" a speech written by some PR agent. In his original speech, he recounts the arrival of the whites into his land. This event may have signified the beginning of something great for the white man, but it signals the end of the Indians as well. He stated, "We, the Wampanoag, welcomed you, the white man, with open arms, little knowing that it was the beginning of the end; that before 50 years were to pass, the Wampanoag would no longer be a free people."

So, according to Frank James, the arrival of the whites in America was the beginning of the end.

And by "the end", he meant the end of freedom for the Wampanoag Indians in their own lands.
