Piloting a shuttle

[Vortex]

Would you use Pilot or Operations (Piloting) for something like a Centauri shuttle?

It can carry many people so it's technically not a solo craft. On the other hand, it has a single pilot and some passengers so the actual crew is only 1.

I'd say yes, what race is piloting the Shuttle?

 

[Greg Smith]

I allow either Pilot or Ops (pilot), for the sake of flexibility, ie characters with either can do it in a pinch.

The general rule is that if you fly it with a stick or yoke, use Piloting (fighters, shuttles, etc.), but if you use buttoned commands and consoles, use Ops (Pilot).

Londo had problems reading a centauri shuttle control panal.

Londo had problems reading a centauri shuttle control panal.

Not problems as such, it had just been a long time since last he flew.

Back on topic: doesn't it say in the main book that ships listed with 1 pilot use Pilot-skill and those listed with more pilots use Ops (Pilot)?
